[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 147980, member: 1991"] I'm glad they made up. But this IS typical. And even that level of language - sorry, it is typical of kids these days. Doesn't make it right, though. I endorse the grounding, for leaving that message with the swearing. Not acceptable and a valuable lesson. The natural consequences of this SHOULD be that people won't want to invite over a boy who leaves swear words like that on their phone. What if the boy's elderly grandmother checked the messages? Clearly, his mother was the one who got the message, not the boy who difficult child was swearing at. Not good. It is as bad as if difficult child said that to her face. He needs to know this and perhaps write a letter of apology to his friend's mother, perhaps as an alternative to the grounding. (hey, if you can swing it so it's as well as the grounding - good for you!) Marg [/QUOTE]
