[QUOTE="JMom, post: 755784, member: 19892"] Wise, I had this same issue. The lie was worse than the truth. I had to tell my kid that I'd rather hear the awful truth than the lie. I told him you can answer "I'd rather not answer or You don't want to know" if he thought I wouldn't like the truth. That was easier than being disrespected with the lie. It is insulting. It sounds like your kiddo is ready to fly the coop. My J was doing better but I still asked him nicely to move out for this same reason. I wanted to know who he was with and when he'd be home, mostly just because I wanted to know who would be home for dinner. I thought similar to you, if you live under my roof, be considerate and check in. (I still do). I also asked for the once a day text, "I'm alive, goodnight", I still get them and he's been gone almost a year. lol [/QUOTE]
