[quote=Anonymous]OP you need to back the heck off. If you have a package being delivered, text your kids and ask if one of them will be home to get it. Set dinner time and tell your kids they can do what they like, but if they aren't going to be home by 7 or whatever, to text you with their ETA. You need to back the heck off. They are 17!!! I would be that a third of the stuff your dd is sending you may not even be accurate. She is playing the game you have created though, and your ds just doesn't want to play that. They both need a chance to grow up here and be responsible for themselves. Stop micromanaging their lives. Unless you live somewhere that bombings are problem, in which case I could see where you need a live update of their every freaking move. Back off, and I say this as another "helicopter" mom. They are 17, you have done your job. Now is the time to let them learn to be responsible with their freedom, before they move away for college. [/quote]
