[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 556436, member: 3419"] Sharon, lol-you have to shave every day! He thinks once a wk is enough. NOT! After his defiance, I told him he could not see his girlfriend, and that I would shave him myself. He said I wouldn't get near him, so I said I would bring in B, my former military friend, or W, our Hero landscaper and difficult child finally quit arguing. He knows I will follow through. (husband had to work all day, because he took the morning off for court, and I knew he'd be home too late to shave difficult child.) Last night, I reminded difficult child that he needed to shave, and he said, "I already did!" "You did?" I turned on the light and lo and behold, he was clean-shaven. Well, if you don't count the moustache. :) by the way, the clever little brat took the bus to his girlfriend's house after school, when I had told him he was grounded from seeing her because of the shaving defiance. But he knew that we had NILD class in an hr and that it would not be worth my time to bring him home, and then go back out to class. So I picked him up and didn't say anything about it to or from class, and after class, he didn't say anything as we drove by her house on the way home, knowing he wanted to go back there but he dare not open his mouth again. (I am mtng her mother at 11 today to discuss their schedules, etc. I'll post it on a new thread.) About the SPCA, ours just got a "divorce" from the city because they intend to be a no-kill shelter, forcing the city to build its own facility for strays and court-ordered quarantines (we have an astronical amt of pit bulls here. We're in Michael Vick territory). So I will call them to see if there is anything that difficult child can do. Animal shelters are always on my list. :) Thank you all, especially those who have been there done that. I hope that this is all a lesson learned for difficult child. Oh, and by the way, the judge remembered us! The same judge who did our adoption. And the bailiff is a pt of husband's, and had an appointment yesterday afternoon. He said that the judge had good things to say about us, and he said, in regard to difficult child, "Boy, he's got his hands full with that one." Nice to know that no one is blaming us ... and weird that in a city with-a population of nearly 200,000, we get the same judge 15-1/2 yrs later! :faint: [/QUOTE]
