[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are young adults now. My 17 year old threatened to run away. I offered to help her pack. [/quote] Yup! Call their bluff OP. [/quote] I would ask them where would they go? I had this chat with my 13 yr old once. I said to him that he may not like the rules of the house and so he thinks he's got it "bad", but trust me, it's even worse out there. But honestly, DS knows he has it pretty good at home. I once "ran away" from home when I was 10 or something. I snuck out because I was angry at my mom for one reason or another. It was broad daylight. I walked around the block and came back home. Where was I going to go? [/quote]
