I am surprised that he was stupid enough to break up with her just because he got caught and then try to throw the blame back on you. I think that was totally a guilt tactic to make you feel bad about grounding him and making him lose "the only good thing in his life" because he lied. That was dumb. He should have known that you are way too smart to fall for that. If he is going to break up with his girlfriend that is his choice. Not your fault he lied, he got caught, and he chose to handle the whole thing by breaking up with her.

When my husband found a box of condoms in our son's closet, he brought them to me and asked if he should throw them away. I emphatically replied, "NO!" My feeling was that at least he was being responsible. Unfortunately, kids today have sex like we had goodnight kisses. It's just part of dating for some of them. Keep the lines of communication open and teach responsible sex.Vicki @ Grams Made Ithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14830960886130900689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-256911450791990581.post-28846355839289528122010-11-16T12:33:45.936-05:002010-11-16T12:33:45.936-05:00OMG!
