[quote=Anonymous]Our son graduated and turned 18 in June. We explained to him that the rules would remain the same, but with a few adjustments to allow him a bit more freedom (later curfew, fewer check-ins, more autonomy). On the flip side though, during this gap year he's taking, he had to get a job, take the initiative to register for classes at Moco, take on some extra chores around the house and pay a portion of his cell phone bill. It's a work in progress, but he's mostly hitting the marks. Our perspective is that, you're not a full-fledged adult until you're able to support yourself and live independently. [/quote]
