[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your DS is a senior in high school.  Yeah, he’s lying to you.  In college, he likely won’t tell you anything at all so he won’t have to lie to you.  Just a bad dynamic that is just a prelude to how you will relate to him as an adult.[/quote]

Disagree. I mean come on, did you know ANYONE that told their parents about their sex lives in college. It's rare. It doesn't mean they won't be close. The idea that having a teenager be angry at a parent for setting boundaries while they are minors and living at home and being taken care of is guaranteed to lead to a strained adult relationship is ridiculous to me. All teenagers I knew pushed back. All parents didn't roll over. The vast majority have loving adult family relationships.[/quote]

Me!  And several of my friends talked to my mom, because her theory was that every teen/young adult she counseled was hopefully one less unwanted baby, abortion or std.  Of course, my mom had no objection to answering any question I had, no matter what it was, no matter how old I was.[/quote]

Great! Did iPhone talk to your dad about it too? Op has a son we’re discussing. Your situation is not comparable [/quote]
