[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 518027, member: 59"] vrigrl I don't want to sound a cynic and so if you don't think what I am going to say is helpful please ignore it. Be very careful because he may be telling you what he thinks you want to believe, that he wants to get his life in order, he wants to go to school, etc etc. From my experience they have a ready excuse for everything, they miss community service and they were helping out a friend in need, they skip school and they didn't study for test and didn't want to go and fail, he doesn't clean his room because he's depressed. I have heard every excuse and made up story imagineable. And when he's afraid you are on to him he plays nice and asks to go out to family dinner. It's all a ruse to continue doing what he wants, delaying the inevitable. I'm sorry I am such a disbeliever but as long as he is using he is lying to everyone and has no intention of following the law let alone your rules. Just be careful what you believe. I now have a rule that I don't believe anything my difficult child says unless she proves is beyond a shadow of a doubt, and even then I will always wonder. Nancy [/QUOTE]
