[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I told him that I was hoping he would admit what he did so that we could deal with it and start fresh. However, I can't prove he took it so I'm going to have to accept his explanation. However, the money that is missing was money budgeted for back to school clothing, and since it's gone I can't buy him the jeans he wanted for school. I'm trying to implement [b]logical consequences [/b]but I don't think I can legitimately punish him for something I only suspect. I do think I need to get back on track regarding limits for him, and work on de-emphasizing the expensive items. He worked hard for the money he did earn, and it made sense to me for him to spend it as he wanted (and we're talking Air Jordan sneakers here). THanks for all the advice, PPs.[/quote] Oh, please... tell me this is not your child-rearing mantra.[/quote]
