[QUOTE="janebrain, post: 172404, member: 3208"] Well, sure, she was sobbing--she got caught and was scared. Remorseful tears? Probably not. My difficult child 1 was the queen of sobbing and it usually worked. The thing I found out was that she could sob on demand, she should have been an actress. Doesn't sound like your dtr has really learned anything--perhaps she actually will have to feel the consequences, not just hear what they will be. I know that any time my dtr managed to avoid natural consequences for a behavior she learned nothing except that she got away with something. I remember getting ticketed for speeding a couple of times when I first had my license--I wised up after that and haven't gotten another ticket since then (about 35 years). Raising teens is not for the faint of heart, that is for sure! Hugs, Jane [/QUOTE]
