[QUOTE="busywend, post: 72580, member: 391"] While I understand the need and desire for family time, I think it is pretty common for teens to not want to spend time with the family. I struggle with this with my difficult child, too. It is difficult to get them to see what they are missing. Someday they will see it. I think perhaps your expectations might be too high. It is a normal teen thing to not spend time with family - or as little as possible. Now, if he is trying to hang out with some undesirable friends - well that is a different story. That should not be allowed. [/QUOTE]
