[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 653097, member: 4152"] Sounds like a good plan!!!! Did you tell him it would be a month if it was positive? If so, that is what you need to do! We don't like to make it too long without a phone due to safety issues So, we usually do a week. A week, for our Difficult Child is hexx. You could say two weeks minimum and if he doesn't whine and accepts the consequences like a gentleman without complaint and tests negative after two weeks, you will consider giving him the phone back after two weeks....otherwise the full month without further discussion. Whatever you do, let me tell you, the cell phone is a MIGHTY tool. It is how we got great improvement from our Difficult Child regarding treating us with respect. We simply turn off her phone for a week and I'm extra quick to do it if she is disrespectful to me on the phone. Of course, the use of drugs is an even bigger issue. Hang in there! [/QUOTE]
