Thanks everyone...................son is simmering down
still doesnt get what the big deal is................and I tell him I understand that he sees no big deal in all of this and thats the problem.............but its getting better and hes okay today
I'm sticking to my word. He may drive again before 18 but NOT that car and not one thats considered a fast or racing car............
Sons still trying to be manipulative and push my buttons.........watching alot of speed racing junk on TV makes comments about when"I'm 18" but I pretend not to notice..............thinking keep it up kid you wont drive...........till 18 but I stay quiet I think that gets to him more
Eventually he'll be ready to really listen and I'll try to talk then but until then its me fingers in my ears saying to myself lalalalalala
