[QUOTE="dirobb, post: 144403, member: 2858"] Not necessarily the solution for you, But we have a small business and both my difficult child come here after school. They hate it but neither can be left at home for various reasons. they are soon to be 15 and 17. This summer will be interesting. the easy child's are off to explore the world before starting school in the fall (both will no longer be home) So the older difficult child was at home last summer with easy child. Younger difficult child spent a big part of summer with bio mom (we will not be repeating that this year) But younger difficult child is looking like he may have to start day treatment. so that may be the answer for him. But I agree with it not being a "should" issue. We are still looking for solutions. But for us this has helped tremendously in minimizing broken and stolen items around our house. I would put it on him. His responsibility. If you can not trust him. you have to place him somewhere to assure yourself that he is safe. Let him build from there. Maybe work on a one or two day reprieve to gauge if he is responsible enough to eventually be left at home after school and be able to stay put until you come home. [/QUOTE]
