Just got seven more for violating his probation - he was driving without the mandated interlock device.

Thank you so much for posting this. Every parent and teen needs to read what can easily happen when you fail to enforce healthy boundaries early on.

This boy obviously thought the rules didn’t apply to him. His parents allowed it. Tragic.[/quote]

It’s so easy to blame parents. But none of us really knows whether they worked hard at parenting or were entitled. As a parent of a troubled teen and a friend of other parents with troubled teens, I can tell you this. Even when you work really hard at parenting, sometimes your kids don’t turn out the way you hoped - and the way your other kids did. You are lucky if you never experienced this.

+1 this is an important reminder. I haven’t dealt with it but seeing how different my kids all are despite being raised in the same family is eye opening. I Have a friend whose child is troubled and it was obvious from elementary school that was the direction he was heading despite parents enforcing consequences. There by the grace of God go I...  Sorry for your situation. [/quote]
