[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 359614, member: 1233"] In no way did I mean that vandalizing is typical teen or acceptable. I just meant that the other teachers have gone through it or will go through it, so she shouldn't feel too embarrassed. Her daughter should feel embarrassed! Seeing a doctor is good, but it does NOT eliminate the consequences. At least not here. As for curfew, what does your gut say? Does he get angry or aggressive or whiny or whatever if he stays out all night? Will he stop going to work/school if he is out really late? A LARGE part of the curfew should be based on what time everyone else goes to bed. He should be home and settling down by the time you go to sleep so that you won't be disturbed. You meaning parents and siblings who have to get up for school/work. Is he noisy when he comes in or if he is rattling around the house after you go to sleep? Will his vehicle or friends' vehicle wake you up when it pulls in and when it leaves? Rules should be partially based on your values and how his actions will impact the family. Esp those who have to go to work/school the next day and those who have to deal with his moods/attitude when he is tired. I hope you can set some rules for coming home every day if he is going to continue to live at home. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
