[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 182760, member: 3444"] I think he did a great job of holding it together, despite being obviously angry about how things were working out. And I don't think the pay-back arrangement is unreasonable either. As tempting as it is to come down hard on difficult child's (mine anyway) I think we have to understand that we risk escalating things and then they don't learn anything from the situation. By working out a solution that is agreeable to you both, he comes away from this (hopefully) understanding the consequence for his actions and buying into it as well. Again, I think it's great that he handled it as well as he did! [/QUOTE]
