[QUOTE="keista, post: 532694, member: 11965"] The first suggestions that you like, I like too. The ones under question: (number them?) 1 and 2 dealing with school directly and being responsible fro getting himself up I 100% agree HOWEVER I wouldn not supply the bus passes - he needs to do this on his own. No money from a job, then he can do extra chores to earn that money. the third one I 100% DISAGREE. He's 16. He is a child. And sorry, I'll say my parental judgement type thing - he can't get up because he's staying up all hours. Even not questioning where he's going is pushing a parental envelope, but I'd go with that but most certainly have some sort of curfew imposed. I really think the counselor is nuts on this one. The kid is 16!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is not a control issue but a parenting issue. However, I think it's all really a moot point because given his recent behavior I think he won't make it past the first set of rules and will be out of your house for 4-6 months. Sorry. [/QUOTE]
