[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m parked outside the  friend’s house where his phone says he is and texted and called him and he hasn’t come out. 
I think he’s at the gf’s house but left his phone here. I[b]’ve been here for almost 3 hours. [/b]
Do I stay here or go to girlfriend’s house? If I go there he could say he just went to pick up his car and left his phone at friend’s house. If I stay at friend’s he will have to come here to pick up his  phone and will have to explain why his phone is here and has been all night while he hasn’t.
But the question is should I stay here at all? I can’t ring the door bell because I don’t want to wake up friend’s parents. So short of catching him out why am I here?
I could go to gf’s house and ring the bell since her parents are not there but she could say my son is not there and he could nip to friend’s house, get his phone and go to gf’s house as if that was the plan all along.

The question still is-am I acting like a normal rational woman? Should I just go home and wait for him and dish out the punishment? What purpose will catching him in the act serve?
I’m so confused.[/quote]

To answer your question no, you are not acting normal.  Three hours sitting outside of the friends house is crazy.  Not wanting your son to spend the night with his girlfriend is perfectly acceptable and I 100% agree with you.  Having said this, hunting him down and staying out the house is not OK in this situation.  You have told him what is acceptable in your home, you told him what your expectations are, now it’s on him to make the choice.  If he doesn’t follow the rules he suffers the consequences.  Sitting in a car outside for three hours is nuts.[/quote]
