Well Capital Z, english is not my native language, I´m not going to fuzz about your comment, but I don´t think that the jive you are using is quite proper either. I went to this site since I thought I could get some useful information from africans since there are not many africans in the neighbourhood. See?

Hi there, thanks for your advises! He is 17 and at the moment he is feeling better and are acting as any other normal kid. It seams like he is not aware of his behaviour. Our smaller boy, aged 6 noticed when he was sad and made him a drawing and put it on his bed. When he came home he got really angry and throw the drawing back yelling to him that he should stay out of his room. My son got sad of course. I told him about this incident now when he is in a good mood when we are able to discuss things with him and he got really ashamed. It´s just that he don´t know better, I don´t know. We would ground our own kids, but its hard to ground a teenager I think, what we do is that we denies him access to the internet and/or the computer, the thing is that he don´t understand what that has to do with his behaviour. He knows that I´m visiting a site asking for advices, but he has not the url, perhaps should I give it to him, but I won´t change my identity too much, It would not hurt if he knew about our worries. We do ask all these questions since we love him. If we didn´t care he would have been thrown out a long time ago. What I have learned through you all is that the problems we are having with him is more of a teenagerproblem than a "somali"problem as I thought at first. Kind regards, Pete

Well Seweet_gal, the rules we have is that weekdays we want him to be at home from 10pm and in weekends 1.30am, this is bacauese we live 8 km from the city and has to get him, weekdays we also want him to be fit for school. If he wants to stay at a friends house (weekends) we want to know that some day ahead and with whom he is staying. If he invites some friends to visit him over the weekend we also want him to notify us so we can plan for the food(at times he brings 4 or 5 friends at home). When he calls to get picket up we just want him to ask us in a nice manner, its not fun to pick up the phone to hear: "come and get me!" instead of: Hi, it´s xxxxx can you pick me up at this and this time? He gets quite frustrated when we won´t pick him up at the very moment when he calls. Regarding money and things. We know that his aunt allways could´t provide him with cool things and money. We can, and do without trying to spoil hom. Everything we get from the social services for keeping him do we give back to him one way or another, and more. Like cell phones, CD walkmans, phone cards, clothes, etc. And we certainly don´t feed him pork. I have to go, my smaller kids want´s to play LEGO. Take care for now.
