[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 603651, member: 13542"] WTW, it all sounds positive! Thanks for the update. It seems that he is making an effort and acting more reasonably, I am impressed that he has worked with husband and there were no negative results other then 2 lapses in his time............all good. The car thing is a bit dicey I can understand your reluctance to offer that at this point in time. It does sound as if he needs to earn it, driving is a privilege and it would likely work out better if he earned it in some fashion. I'm dealing with that with my 17 year old granddaughter. Of course, she lives with us and is (mostly) a easy child, not a difficult child,.......she drives our cars and having her own car is contingent on her getting good grades the first semester of her Senior year. At this point I think we need to start training her to be independent and taking on more responsibility. Your son working for one year is a really positive sign! Good post WTW, thanks! [/QUOTE]
