[quote=Anonymous]I'd forgo the yelling and have a short conversation such as this, "tad, your father and I are extremely disappointed in you. We both know you know what you did was just stupid and what's worse is that you are not a stupid person. Beyond that and perhaps the most difficult part for us is the disapointment your father and I have in ourselfs and our parenting. We cannot believe that you would begin to think that this type of behavior would be acceptable in our house and clearly you think just that. As a result, we have to reevaluate our approach to parenting and until we have come to a resolution on how best to communicate our expectations of you and what toucan expect from us you will no longer be allowed.....". He will go nuts but hold your ground and dont fight back. Just let him rant/yell whatev. He was skipping class ultimately not the worse that he could have done but he was dumb getting caught and you can presume he's done it before. [/quote]
