[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 32029, member: 1514"] Well no I wouldnt go behind husband's back because that is going to cause marital discord and triangulation by the child. What really needs to happen is for husband to have a lightbulb moment and realize he cannot shelter his son forever. Is there anyone that your husband trusts and admires that could have a word of prayer with him about this? Maybe a trusted pastor or someone? I have a very religious therapist who is very grounded on what teens are like. Maybe you could try pastoral counseling. There has to be a compromise between your husband and your son on these things. He cant keep your son a child forever. Maybe what the compromise could be is that your son will keep the rap music to the cleaned versions and only listen to it on headphones. Also if he uses foul language because of it, then it goes. That might be a good compromise. Your son might be willing to "do to get" for that. As far as the movies...I think you are fighting a losing battle because he is over the age limit and he can go on his own. [/QUOTE]
