[QUOTE="DDD, post: 600676, member: 35"] I TOTALLY understand your shock. Because I've raised so many I won't begin to list the times when I was gobsmacked that other parents didn't do any form of punishment...any. In 1967 easy child son and two neighbor boys walked two blocks to a grocery store and stole candy. I marched him down to the friends house and told my neighbor "friend" that we were headed to see the Manager. Her response?? "Boys, don't you ever do that again!" easy child faced the Manager and I don't think he ever stole again. When he was 15 he slept at his boyfriend's house. No problem and at three in the morning my doorbell rang. There was a policeman with both boys who told me they had been driving around town in his Moms VW Bug. Of course, neither had licenses! I called the Dad in the morning to report what had happened. His response? Laughter. I don't get it. If parents don't take a leadership role who to heck is suppose to?? Peers?? Sorry. You are RIGHT. They are WRONG. It's awkward but stick to your morals. DDD [/QUOTE]
