[QUOTE="Shar, post: 50841, member: 2572"] I completely agree. This is the hardest part of parenting--coming through on our "promises". I have done it and we all survived. I agree with ant'smom where she said "my dad meant what he said. he was fair and firm and never caved in if he set a rule." my dad was the same way. I had the utmost respect for my dad and always wanted to make them proud. unfortunately, i think kids today lack respect and think we as parents will not follow through. You gave him the choice and he made one, so he has to live with the decision he made not to follow your rules. if it were someone elses child, you would agree with the decision you made, right?!? Be strong. I depend on this site so much. It is a haven [/QUOTE]
