Guest guest Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 Oh that is so sad for your son. They use to do things like that to my son too. I guess this is part of where his ANGER comes from. It all becomes confusing and fustrating. Our children copy other kids ....kids who can get away with things but our kids always get caught. I am not condoning my son's actions....just trying to understand where all this is coming from. I think having a girlfriend, the teen scene is hard for him to handle. He is angry at his x-best friend and they are no longer talking and I know that must bother him too. Plus he says his ex-b.f. knew his password on face book and posted stuff that he didn't say. But, can I truly believe my son...I told my son it is hard for me to believe him because he has lied to us about his computer. He threw it in anger and it broke...he said he dropped it. My son lies but the truth always comes out. And, he tells us stuff and then when we don't believe him he gets totally fustrated. I have told him the story about the boy who cried wolf too many times but it doesn't sink in. Who is the author of that book. I think I may want to get a copy for myself. Thanks for your support.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 I got that book for my son also last year when he had that incident with the teacher in the hallway. It has helped him and now he is really paranoid about anything that is "against the law". The other day we were driving down the road on our way to church and he used a babywipe in the car to wipe his hands. Out of no where he decides to roll the window down and throw it out! He's never done this before and he knows not to litter. I got really upset and told him we don't litter. He said it's not littering because it's biodegradable. OMG! I said, maybe but that takes a while and it is still littering. I told him we could get a $200 fine and that the car behind us could take down our plate number and call it in. He got so worried that he wanted me to turn around so he could pick the babywipe back up. I told him we could go back after church. I'm sure he will never throw anything out the window again. Our kids are so literal that maybe if your son sees it in black and white he will take it serious. ne From: rushen janice <jrushen@...>Subject: Re: ( ) Re: Son Suspended from School Date: Wednesday, February 9, 2011, 11:53 AM Oh that is so sad for your son.
