[QUOTE="klmno, post: 353999, member: 3699"] This IS the main thing on my mind. Fortunately when I went off on PO about the last probation officer and her antics and how they completely made things in this area worse than they already were, he apparently actually got it so now we have been discussing a lot of things along these areas and how to support each other's requirements and expectations with difficult child. I doubt seriously that difficult child will get off parole until/unless I tell PO that difficult child has become reasonable with complying with me. And difficult child has been toldd that this is EXACTLY why he has ended up having to stay in this system so long- he just keeps going and going. If PO is correct, difficult child can't stay on this fence for too long without going one way or another. If PO isn't correct, it's only a matter of time anyway. I had to leave a message for PO today to tell him whether or not difficult child came home on time and told the truth about not going on the field trip but he didn't call back- I should hear from him tomorrow. And just what you said, LDM, will be the topic at this point. One thing I will say, difficult child only goes so long being defiant with me before he is doing illegal things and then others won't let that go on anymmore I have been told, and do believe. Obviously- the only reason he wanted to walk to school was to justify having 1/2 hour talking to his friend before school because they are both in trouble and supposed to be staying home. The firend did this too- but he's grounded by his parents and supposed to be going straight to and from school on the bus. difficult child and friend both keep each other plowing down the wrong the road (not to mention themselves).
