[QUOTE="Arttillygirl, post: 32007, member: 3522"] Thanks, that is where my tendancy is leaning. The Eminem lyrics about rape and murder are just not acceptable. We are open to other artists but my teen seems to be adopting a "sit down" stike. He won't stop cursing, do any of his jobs and I guess in general fail until we give his stuff back. I told him I was open to it, tell us what is making him so angry, what does he need? He said We won't let him spend the night with his best friend. He doesn't realize his friend was molested at 10 and we love him but don't want him spending the night but cannot tell him why. He said We don't let him go to pg 13 movies. We do but not all. The last movie he wanted to see was Premonition and it seemed dark and not at all good for his direction. He threw such a fit. We lightned up and let him see Pursuit of Happiness. His friends are all seeing R movies. I understand his disappointment. We get almost everything he wants to see (clean versions) for our home so he does see what he wants. He is repaying us by using explicit language now. I do believe he is feeling backed into a corner. I feel that way with my husband sometimes too. So how do I help him lighten up without my husband's support? I don't want to lose my son over such ridiculous things such as music and movies. [/QUOTE]
