[quote=Anonymous]Your son is 14, not 4! He shouldn't need to be rousted out of bed, pushed to get out of door for his sports practices, etc. In your shoes, I would sit your son down, and tell him that he is old enough to be responsible for his own $hit, and he will set alarms and timers, wake himself up and get himself to school on time, be ready for practices and hangouts without any prompting, etc. He is to not give the Au Pair a hard time; if he does you end up having to mediate, he loses his activity for the day. He misses practice enough days, he will likely be cut from the team, so make sure he knows that. It is WAY past time to put your foot down.[/quote]
