Yesterday, I posted about difficult child using her phone to access fb and other sites and I wondered what to do about it...
We found out she was doing this because we had taken her phone away one night...
Then today, we found out she had been using husband's computer in the middle of the night for IM-ing and gosh knows what else.
husband and I decided we were not OK with that. We decided to take the phone away as a consequence.
husband did this in a calm and rational manner. difficult child responded by telling him that she had absolutely no intention of following his rules anyway.
husband told her that if that's the way she feels - she could get out.
So she packed a bag, smiled at him and told him the police would be paying him a visit. And she left.
husband says they can arrest him if they want - he is done.
I really hope it does not come down to that....but I don't know what else to do.
