[QUOTE="pasajes4, post: 687683, member: 12856"] I am so sorry that this happened. It could be as simple as he had access to a car and the pull of being able to drive again overrode everything else. Most of our kids are impulsive without giving pause to the consequences. I am pretty sure he would not want to own up to this being the reason. My therapist told me to avoid the whole lying thing to not give him a chance to lie. He suggested that I stick to the facts. You went to work and left on break. You did not go back to work. The manager called me because you gave him my number. The car was used for something other than what was agreed upon. This is the consequence. Then I was to walk away. When I was able to do this as opposed to listening to his litany of bull, it was effective. [/QUOTE]
