[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 656136, member: 18958"] Hi Blackgnat I am learning that to ask about their plan...opens the door to foul play. Every single time. When you ask them about their plans they: 1. Want you to take responsibility to solve everything. 2. Punish you. 3. Blame you. In this exchange with your son, I see the three things at work. By the way, I admire your retort. Good. He is soon to be released. His plans are his responsibility. His business. Don't ask. Don't give him an opening to hurt you, to use you or to hold you responsible. [/QUOTE]
