ESTEBAN - "We understand it is a difficult transition for all of us with this move, especially the three of you. But you cannot continue to pick at one another. And certainly not run to your grandmother's asking them to intervene into situations. You need to come to us, Both Marco and myself. We are all a team."
MARCO - "Then letting these things spill over into our school lives and work and including others into your arguments is unacceptable.
ROSA - Ms. Finnigan came to me dad, I didn't go to her..."
MARCO - "I understand that, Rosalie, but it should have never gotten to that point, right boys? And do not snicker, Miss, you started this a few days before by trying to start something by going to your grandmothers. Don't you realize we all talk to one another??"
ESTEBAN - "Infighting, arguing and trying to get at one another through school friends is not the way to take care of these issues. The three of you need to come to a realization that we are ALL a family. If we have to have this talk again, it's not going to be as pleasant, Groundings will be implemented."
The kids got up and went to their rooms.
MARCO - "So do you think we got through to them?"
ESTEBAN - "I certainly hope so. I do not want to punish them. They need to learn to get along."
Here is hoping guys!!
