[QUOTE="Bean, post: 345012, member: 8620"] The internet can be almost as dangerous as drugs. One of the hardest things for our difficult child to learn is that what "everyone else is doing" can be/has been problematic to them. Maybe everyone else has internet, but not everyone else has abused it. Many people can be responsible with their internet use, but kids who are prone to addiction and have poor impulse control can have a really hard time with internet (porn, social connections, etc.). Definitely NO to outright giving it to him. Let him use it at the library. At least there's people all around and the potential for abuse is much less. [/QUOTE]
