[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 520790, member: 3419"] Thanks! Yes, we had a family mtng this a.m. with-difficult child and I had him tell husband about T and E. husband immediately lavished praise on him and difficult child kind of shrugged. But I know it was worth bringing up and that difficult child liked hearing the praise, even though he acted nonchalant. He helped me plant bulbs around noon and complained through the whole thing because he wanted to skip baseball practice and hang out with-a friend. He stayed up until 11:15 last night when he told me he was turning off his video game at 9:15, and then this a.m. at 7:30 he swiped my keys while I was sleeping (I thought I'd caught him because he leapt back from the nightstand and his hands were empty, but it turns out he was returning the keys) and turned the modem back on so he could play again. Grrr. It is soooo hard to praise him when he's always doing something he's not supposed to be. (Okay, he's not smoking weed. ;) ) [/QUOTE]
