[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 418493"] Yup, you need to present a united front with husband or these kids will see that hole and use it to their advantage as much as possible. Been down that road. Now husband knows [I]everything[/I]. It sounds like you are afraid of confrontation. If husband has no problem being the disciplinarian, maybe it would be a good idea to let him dole out the consequences with you backing him up. I agree with searching the room - and often!! No such thing as privacy in my house anymore. They earn privacy when they have earned their own place to live. Had I searched my difficult child's room a lot sooner in her life, I would have found out everything she was into and may have been able to do something about it. My difficult child smokes, too, but she was not allowed to smoke on my property or in front of me. I despise smoking. Your daughter is young enough that you may be able to do something about it... I'm sorry - been down this road and it hoovers....big time. [/QUOTE]
