[QUOTE="Fran, post: 134980, member: 3"] Glad husband got to see the difficult child in his finest. Dinners out with difficult child always were a very orchestrated ordeal. If it were not a kids type restaurant with things to entertain him or he could roam around looking at things, we had to make sure he had things to do. difficult child didn't care about fine dining. He was just stopping long enough to get fueled. We got to the point of never ordering appetizers and bringing kids food as soon as it was ready. If difficult child were inappropriate one of us took him outside to the parking lot until the others were done or he calmed down enough to act civilized. difficult child is never going to be a guy who lingers over good food and conversation. He will refuel and go. Adolescence is a time of exceptional growth and turmoil. You have my sympathies. [/QUOTE]
