[QUOTE="DDD, post: 71872, member: 35"] My easy child son and I figured out that very method for him to use if he felt it was unwise to stay at a party or spend the night. husband and I had not been married long when easy child was a teen and husband thought it was "weird". [img]:hammer:[/img] It wasn't "weird" at all. It gave easy child a way out of a situation he didn't feel he could handle. I'm smiling now as I recall the "play acting" that sometimes went with his calls. Ring. Ring. Slightly rough voice "OK Mom, I'm calling like you said I had to!" DDD "Do you think you should come home?" Rough voice "Home??? Why do I have to come HOME?" DDD "Should I come now?" Rough voice "Can't I stay until midnight?" DDD "OK, pick ya up at midnight." It worked like a charm even when he was in college and on a date that he didn't enjoy. Everyone thought I was such a you/know/what. He always just said "Thanks, Mom" when he got home. [img]:smile:[/img] I think your son is PCing! DDD [/QUOTE]
