[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And rereading your post, maybe drop the requirement to text where he is at 12:30.  He’s not going to do this.  How about agreeing that he give you a rough idea when he will be home and text if he’s staying the night somewhere else? Is he okay still having 360 on his phone at this age? [/quote]

Problem is his battery life. Next time he has plans to go out (when he's back in your good graces!), remind him to charge his phone before he leaves.[/quote]

Op here- he had battery life at 3:50– so way before then he could have texted “hey I’m going to Nicks yo spendnnite with some buddies”

12:30 is our timeframe to just let us know rough idea of his plans- that’s it- “I’ll be home in about hour”—- “I’m staying at Dave’s”—- whatever.

I don’t feel like a freshman home for holidays is too unnumbered by letting their folks now at 12:30 they are/ are not headed home. Then when I wake up I have an idea where he ended up.
    It’s 3 weeks at Xmas and 2.5 months in summer and it makes me know he’s resonably safe— feel like that’s a pretty simple ask.
   Honestly, I’m 50 and when I go to my parents house, I always say where I’m going out of just normal courtesy— “hey I’m going to dinner with friends tonite”—- “im going to mall”—- it just seems normal.
   Then if I never came home, they would know it’s not like me and to worry.

PP you replied to. I totally get you. But I'm just saying, now you can't even call or check his location. Next time, I hope he can have a fully charged phone that lasts until he comes home.
