[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 620048, member: 1514"] Im so sorry. It is difficult enough to attempt to detach when both parents are on the same page but almost impossible when they arent. It sounds like not only are you guys not on the same page but you are each reading a different book! There have been many times that this has happened in my house too. It seems like one of us is ready and the other folds like a deck of cards. One of the things that has always ticked me off is when I tell his dad one thing in confidence and then I find out that the information gets back to my son within a day. Why on earth does he do that? It makes him look like the good guy and me the bad guy. In fact, right now we wouldnt even be leaving our house except their father made that decision. That decision has made my difficult child feel that he has every right to threaten me and tell me what to do. I dont do well with that. I cant tell you how many times in the last week I have screamed at difficult child to just friggen leave! Personally I would be happy to just sell the thing out from under everyone. [/QUOTE]
