Just curious-what consequences would you give for an OSS, ISS, and a ban from the bus..
as well as failing all subjects except one which is a D? What do others find appropriate here?
If they had all of these things in one week-would you then allow them to go to a school dance that Friday? OSS was on Wednesday, ISS on Thursday-bus ban all week-failing grades all semester. Dance on Friday? How many would let their kids go?

I think only an idiot would

No dance. HELL NO.
No dance. HELL NO.
So next question-how does one
So next question-how does one not understand that allowing them a privilege like that continues to perpetuate bad behaviors? To me, this is obvious, but perhaps not to everyone?
Can't you just tell DH that
Can't you just tell DH that he is being a big fucking douche and that if he allows his kid to go to this dance his son will also be a big fucking douche?
Aww, you figured out I was
Aww, you figured out I was talking about ss!!! He lives with inlaws. They are the ones that let him go. Of course, they were probably sick of having him around so they probably just saw an evening without him as a plus.
No way! Not only would they
No way! Not only would they not go to the dance. They would have no phone or TV or video games ect. Their spare time would be studying till the grades and behavior improved. Kids needs rules and boundries. Thats how we as parents teach them right from wrong.
^^^^ Yep, and they hate it,
^^^^ Yep, and they hate it, but they have to do it which builds responsibility (even subconciously), and if they hate the structure, rules,and punishment, they want to get out and do life on their own..... which, guess what? Forces them to get a job, support themself, etc etc. Then they have kids of their own and realize they are DOING EXACTLY WHAT YOU DID! LOL
I can't imagine the school
I can't imagine the school wanting a child who had received OSS, ISS, or a ban from the bus, attending a dance- much less ALL THREE OF THOSE THINGS in the same week. If DH allows his child to go to the dance, that kid will have his number and I would not expect to see behavior improving anytime in the forseeable future!
As would mine. But this is
As would mine. But this is the one that does not belong to me. And the allowing of him to go is fairly indicative of why the kid is the way he is.
My SS had all of these all of
My SS had all of these all of the time in the same week. He normally got things bought for him, or taken somewhere nice. Since the whole school was picking on him and all. GAG.
DH would let the kid go to
DH would let the kid go to the dance if it was SD, but not if it was one of our two BDs. SD one time got suspended for harassing a kid via text message, and DH refused to do anything about it because the punishment by the school was enough. He even let her keep taking her phone to school.
Total lock down and I would
Total lock down and I would "accidentally" leave military school brochures all over the house.
