[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you calmly say I would have tried to give you a ride but [b]I need at least a week's notice.[/b] If you tell me as soon as you need to know the ride I can try to work with you. Otherwise, I am busy. Your time is valuable too, and they need boundaries just like everyone else.[/quote] You need a week's notice to drive your kid somewhere? [/quote] NP. If the kid is freaking out and creating issues, would suggest doing a weekly schedule every Saturday or Sunday that is written out on a whiteboard somewhere. Stuff will come up, but ideally teen will get better at it over time. And there's no shame in saying no, and eventually your kid will accept it. [/quote]
