[quote=Anonymous] OP - First of all have you had a straight talk with your son about the cash investment made in his braces and that you are not at all pleased with his behavior. I would, in fact, tell DS that I expect him to apologize to the orthodontist for his carelessness and see if that might weigh in favor of his continuing to care for him. You might ask him how long it would take to get the top two teeth in alignment and then get a retainer to hold them in place? And, what would an additional cost be as you realize your son has inadvertently taken up more of his time than reasonably expected. DS can also reasonably be expected to contribute to the additional cost for his dental care through some nice summer jobs at home to learn the principal of he who plays is going to pay AND to respect now the money his parents are putting out for him.
