[QUOTE="justour2boys, post: 622997, member: 6235"] Just a thought... does bring "around" the girlfriend for her birthday have to be an all or nothing issue? Meaning, have the family or families involved.... everyone go out to pizza or bowling or mini golf or go to the park for a bbq. You get the idea. Have both teens (and both set of families) do something together so everyone involved is supervised but they still get to celebrate. If the girlfriend's family doesn't want to be involved, then you and/or his Mom take him and the girlfriend out - so again, they are celebrating, just doing it supervised! This could help reinforce the limits and supervision on the teens relationship. As for the grandmother, oh my! Interfering with the parent/child relationship is a deal breaker for me. Sounds like she needs supervised visits much like the teen! Respect me as a parent or no access to my kids, period... but thats just me. Good luck, I know setting limits with adults can be harder than with teens! [/QUOTE]
