[QUOTE="KFld, post: 49459, member: 2442"] Well, husband and I decided to keep the beer incident and last night as seperate things. We had already grounded her for that and didn't think it was fair to combine the two as she had already dealth with the consequences of that. We decided to tell her she was to go to school and work and home for the next week, but we also decided that because boyfriend had nothing to do with either incident, both happened with girlfriends, that he could come over and hang out, but she wasn't allowed to go anywhere, and from now on we would check on where she says she's going for awhile until we feel we can trust her again. Of course by the time she came home she was bawling her eyes out because she had lied to us and wanted to know what would happen to her. We gave her the consequences and she said she was sorry, but that she really wanted to go to the concert but didn't think we would let her. We explained that we probably would have let he go to the concert if she had asked, as long as somebody else was driving, that we trusted, and that we didn't want her driving there and she knew that. Difference between her and a difficult child, she understood why we were mad and was very remorseful. I know it's eating her up because she kept saying, I hated lying to you and crying. But let me tell you, girlfriends are brutal!!! She tells her friends about he consequences and they turn it into how I favor boyfriend over her and don't like them??? Hello, where did this come from??? So then she's crying hysterically because her friends think I don't like them and would rather have her hanging out with boyfriend. Then they are trying to make her choose between them and him, like she had anything to do with the consequences and who I would rather she spend time with!! I am really upset with both friends because I have never been anything but nice to both of them and I feel they have been totally disrepectful to me by questioning her as to what my punishment was??? easy child just walked in, I'll write more later [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
