But I agree with Rachel in that it's very different to meddle with every little thing vs. something pretty major like this!
This.

I used to work at an after school center for middle schoolers and I can tell you there's a huge difference in maturity from a sixth grader to a 7th/8th grader so I wouldn't cut the cord just yet. i think you're right to start expecting more from him but in this case you gave him the chance to make it right and he didn't, so I think it's fair to ask about it.
