[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 190129, member: 3907"] Shari, this is the key. This isn't about difficult child losing a privilege like a favourite game because he was misbehaving. This is way different. Seems to me that the natural consequence of not using your weapon safely (not to mention pointing it in anger and with deliberation) is to not use it for a very long time. I think you're right on the money. Not nearly as serious, but along the same lines...the day my difficult child ran me off the road at the Go Kart track when he was 16 and eligible to get his learner's permit, was the day he was told that he will not even be allowed to study for the written driving test until he is 25. At that point we will reevaluate his maturity. I think this is the same type of thing. When giving difficult child a tool with which he can cause irreparable harm, you need to be sure he can handle it. All aspects of it. Sorry you're having to deal with this. Trinity [/QUOTE]
