Ever now and again DH does something that makes me think he gets...doesn't last long, but that second of clarity is nice.....
SS17 who is a total ass, thief, liar, lazy, psycho called from work and asked his dad to come pick him up. Now...first let me say we have begged him to take driver's education at school forever and he almost failed it when he finally did take it, and he has a bike that he breaks all the time because he tries to do XGAMES type tricks with it. Also, now that he has passed drivers ED has not asked to be taken to get a license. DH said..umm you work less then 2 miles from home...try walking. Now mind you, he just broke into DH's mancave and stole his cell phone and lied about it when DH found it at 6am under his pillow..uhhh don't know how it got there...damn cell phones..always growing legs and crawling under the pillow of someone who doesn't own it. Hate when that happens. Now tomorrow DH will coddle him and act like he is a 5 year old..but for this one act..I like it...makes me happy.

I'd lavish on the praise to dear hubby - it's stupid, I know, but positive reinforcement works better than negative. You catch more flies with honey than vinegar.
