[QUOTE="DDD, post: 519541, member: 35"] That was the number one problem I had raising GFGmom. She just "poof" disappeared. It began when she was very small as she rarely slept more than two hours in a row and continued on until her teens (when she would disappear in the car and then come in late hand over the keys and say "sorry, I know I'm grounded"). The amazing part was that she would go visit neighbors AFTER dark and they would invite her in (or let her in) to watch television. Meanwhile my other two children are on bikes and I'm in the car praying she hasn't been abducted. In your case it sounds like he paid natural consequences facing the teacher. I know you try to provide opportunities for him to burn off energy. My only suggestion would be using a cheap watch with timer set or something similar that he could have on his person to indicate "come home now". In the 70's I used a beeper for GFGmom and it worked well. Like your son she was not seeking to be "naughty" she was seeking fun. Sigh. DDD [/QUOTE]
