I feel too strongly about this thread – put it this way, when my two texted their dad’s, saying they weren’t coming home at 1am on New Year’s Eve – of which they had been asked to, to say if they were or weren’t – it woke my ex’s missus up, and then they weren’t allowed in ‘their’ house for 4yrs – Helloooooooooooooo, my thoughts are that they feckin’ bliddy text – I probably wouldn’t have done at their age!!!! Gawd, yeah, let them sleep in ffs. They appreciate it, and make up for it without being asked. I am sorry, but if you treat a teenager with respect they reciprocate! The End! 8)
