[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter lied and told me her father approved something she knew I would have said no to (we're divorced and she was at his house the day before). Since I try not to undercut him and it didn't fall into that category of safety, I let it go. Soon after he and I talked about something else and he said how surprised he was that I signed off on this thing, because it didn't sound like something I'd approve.

So first, lesson learned on my part that I should have fact-checked. Now for the punishment...for some reason I still had an ancient flip phone in my drawer. It turns out that it takes the same SIM card as my child's smart phone. So out came the card and in it went to the flip phone. The smart phone stayed in my possession for a week. I swear, it was worse for her than just not having a phone, because in theory she could do things like text but it was incredibly hard and frustrating. By the end of the week she was begging for her phone back.[b] Lately all I have to do is say the phrase "flip phone" and she reverses course on whatever she's doing.[/b]  [/quote]
