[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 602089"] Hi there, you have been through a wringer. My son, difficult child 1, goes to visits with x where difficult child 1 behaves wonderfully (on pain of death). Then he comes home and falls apart. Depending on how abusive x is determines his behavior when he gets home. This doesn't mean he can control his behavior. He can control it long enough to get to a safe place to meltdown in. Around here if he is very motivated that can last a few days. Then we have really rotten days to make up for it. Maybe you and SO could sit down and write down what the rules are, what the consequences are, who is going to enforce them, and what the other person is going to do about it. I really don't see the situation getting any better without you and SO being on the same page. Also, my husband, has his own space with a lock on it that he keeps things he doesn't want the kids in.
