[QUOTE="ksm, post: 685469, member: 12511"] Oh my. My first suggestion is for you and husband to find a therapist for you to see together, so you can get on the same page. Once you can coparent with the same goals and rules, then your son needs to see a therapist. And instead of him choosing what days to not use phone, you could just deactivate it. He can earn it back with appropriate behavior. But then on a limited basis. I would say phone privileges from 6 to 9pm... Or just let him use wifi at appropriate times, then disconnect wifi all night. No phone until he can get a part time job and pay for it... The tail is wagging the dog... Maybe next time he does have a phone, get one with parental controls. I know there are lots of other ways they can communicate as long as he has wifi available. Good luck... Ksm [/QUOTE]
