[QUOTE="HeadlightsMom, post: 646973, member: 18284"] TerryJ2 -- I think you handled a very unattractive scenario very well. Yes, detaching in the long run is necessary. But, in the short run (like security reasons), it's necessary for safety. I like what everyone said about changing the locks (it's true, one never knows who has or TRIES TO GAIN access). We changed locks, got an alarm system and posted a BIG sign on our front fence.......just in case someone wonders if we have an alarm (our dog will just lick 'em to death, so no fear factor there! LOL!) Car keys went in our lock box (years later, I still hear Al Gore in my voice every time I say "Lock box"!) I also like what MWM said about all's not lost with your difficult child. And, not so coincidentally, am hoping her words also apply to our difficult child. My heart is with you TerryJ2 -- We're in it with you! Different circus and monkeys, but same boat (complete with bucket for bailing us all out!) :) [/QUOTE]
