[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 318528, member: 805"] I agree with the others in relation to your first question. In regards to your second, the simple answer is you just have to let them try. There is no magic age or magic sign that our kids are ready. Just because it didn't work in the past, doesn't mean it won't work know or six months from now. I would say you just have to try. The first couple times, you might want to have a security blanket as such - a pair of eyes that is there, without your son's knowledge, to make sure everything goes well and difficult child stays safe. You and difficult child will need to sit down and discuss safety and rules with the knowledge that, if he doesn't follow, he won't be allowed that freedom again for a while. Sharon [/QUOTE]
