I have the feeling if your 'rotten kid' even thought about getting involved in some of the nonsense that's been going on, you'd know about it before he did and would put a stop to it in no time flat! My kids *hate* that they can't fib to me about stuff like that...I'm the same as Tom..it's like "don't even think about it". I showed them the article in the paper and said "if I even thought you were inovled in something like this you wouldn't see daylight until you were 18". And the discussion went on about how bad it was. I *think* my teens have pretty good heads on their shoulders...BUT, I'm not naive...I know they are still teens.

We've all been there...the kids don't quite seem to grasp that yet, but they will. We know what they're capable of because we were!
Which is why I'm so hard on my boys...I don't want them to suffer from making the same mistakes I did. The oldest (21) has finally figured it out, the 17-yr-old is getting there!

Hi there, cherry! Hope all is well with you.
Our father is clueless but I swear our mother has eyes behind the back of her head. LOL! God bless them both.
