DH Stepped it up this morning

As SD15 was heading out the door this morning DH stopped her and told her to change her shirt because it was low cut and somewhat see through. So damn proud of him. Of course after she left he asked me if I thought he was right to make her change. He got a big kiss and a sneaky grab (wink wink). I think positive reinforcement is going to work well for us!

DH has always been afraid to parent SD15 but now that she is with us full time he is stepping it up. He also checked her grades yesterday and told her that she needs to stay after school for tutoring in Algebra. So proud of him.

No, but that is a good point. I don't think so just because she had to change so quickly in order to catch the bus. All the silly things we have to worry about with a teenager in the house.

That's funny...a grown woman sneaking around. I did the makeup thing too. All of us did, the bathroom before school was full of girls putting on makeup and teasing our hair into a beehive (I'm a product of the 60's) before we went to our first class. then at the end of the day we'd have to hit the bathroom up again to take it all off.

Good for DH!!!! Finally a man with a SPINE! And not afraid to "lose custody" due to enforcing rules! Another vote here for check that backpack!
