[QUOTE="Anna1345, post: 94771, member: 4292"] See that is always my first instinct too -- take everything away. But then I have to remember that he needs an outlet too. If everything is gone, he will be miserable and then act out because he is miserable then I take more away then he gets more miserable, etc. etc. It is such a slippery slope. That is why Jon and I agreed that things in the house can be taken away but the sports can be his outlet and they are also a positive influence for him. I just pray he won't go to jail by the time he is 18. I feel like pulling my hair out sometimes. But you know, just since posting her today I am much more calm about the morning we had this morning. I think you all have given me the patience I need to get through the rest of the day when he gets home. [/QUOTE]
