Thanks Fran. I, too, am hoping its just a bump in the road. Of course difficult child's bumps are notorious for turning into craters by the time he's through. His story is logical---but then it always has been. I will check it out throughly before believing him though. He says he was in the yard throwing a football with a housemate and his old boss from job A drove by. She stopped to ask him how he was. Director drove up. Questioned him and he told her it was someone he worked with. She told him to come on and he reached in and shook the woman's hand goodbye. She told him he was lying because no one who works at job B looks like that woman. He tried to explain she was from job A. She wouldn't listen. Director's story is that he reached in the car after she told him to walk away from the car and she thought he was making a buy. She said he acted like he hadn't done anything wrong and was not upset about being caught. Who knows whether he's lying or not. The old difficult child would have lied in a skinny minute. The boy I've seen for the past 3 months wouldn't. I'll know more tomorrow.

[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 25319, member: 1436"] Thanks Fran. I, too, am hoping its just a bump in the road. Of course difficult child's bumps are notorious for turning into craters by the time he's through. His story is logical---but then it always has been. I will check it out throughly before believing him though. He says he was in the yard throwing a football with a housemate and his old boss from job A drove by. She stopped to ask him how he was. Director drove up. Questioned him and he told her it was someone he worked with. She told him to come on and he reached in and shook the woman's hand goodbye. She told him he was lying because no one who works at job B looks like that woman. He tried to explain she was from job A. She wouldn't listen. Director's story is that he reached in the car after she told him to walk away from the car and she thought he was making a buy. She said he acted like he hadn't done anything wrong and was not upset about being caught. Who knows whether he's lying or not. The old difficult child would have lied in a skinny minute. The boy I've seen for the past 3 months wouldn't. I'll know more tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
