[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 320937, member: 1233"] Well you can continue to be frustrated or tell him that, because of his refusal, his copays for any doctor visits and medications will be coming out of money that he earns or that is allotted for his Christmas and birthday gifts. AFTER the flu season is over, any money that would have been spent on Christmas and birthday will then be turned into some gift for him. IF there is money left. Or some version of that. If he wants to have the say, well, it isn't free. That is a life lesson. The sooner he learns it the better off he will be. Sometimes it is only through hard times that our kids CAN learn. Our job as parents is to make sure they get as many of these lessons as possible so they can be the best adults they can be. Just a thought. Cause it is far better to pass that frustration on than to keep it to yourself. [/QUOTE]
