[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good times make weak men. If he lives in Paradise, why would he want to change anything? You need to put the fear of the world in him. [/quote] +1 we've told our teens how expensive it is to live like we do. We are pretty open about finances. We have house rules, make them do chores, clean their room, put restrictions on phone use (when they were younger teens). In essence, we did not make their lives too comfortable at home. We have also taught them to cook, clean, do laundry, and talked at length about moving out when they get older and being able to take care of themselves, and that everything we have taught them was so that they can take care of themselves when they move out. You need to have these conversations with your 16 yr old.[/quote]
