So, should we take the car away again?

[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 642520, member: 3419"] difficult child skipped classes two weeks ago. We took away one day of the car for each class he skipped. This past week, his photography teacher emailed me and said that she had given him a bathroom pass, and he never returned. I texted him and he said he did return and he had witnesses to prove it. He said he was using his phone to take pictures in the hallways to use on Photoshop. I told him to talk to her. He said he would. She emailed me again and said that she did not see him before the end of class, and that his excuse did not hold up. No credit for that class. I haven't told him yet. I want to sit down with-husband and figure out a plan. This cannot get to be a habit. I'm thinking we should take away the car until he can have two straight weeks of not skipping, regardless of how many classes he skipped. He has to prove himself again. (And I am wondering what he's doing, because he's not in the nurse's office.) [/QUOTE]
