[QUOTE="Praecepta, post: 690015, member: 20025"] Stick to your guns! If he has not demonstrated via his actions that he will abide by your rules, then... ...He made his own bed, he can sleep in it! Period! FYI - I think these things are harder on us than on the kids. We want to be nice, give them rewards for doing well, be the "good guy", etc. Anyway it sometimes kills me to enforce these things, but it is best for the long term. I do know they will respect you more if you follow through with the promised consequences. Seems amazing they would like you more for being strict, but that is the way things are! [/QUOTE]
