[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 96223, member: 393"] While it sounds like family counseling is needed, I don't think it will help unless/until difficult child is evaluated & stabilized. difficult child sounds more than a bit unstable/uncontrollable. husband sounds as though he's at the end of his rope & the knot he's tied is unraveling. You sound like you in the midst of the two of them. Not a good place to be. You & husband (talking from past/present/future experience here) need to talk with-o difficult child in the room & decide how to respond to difficult child & his antics. You need to present a united front. If that doesn't happen, all the family counseling in the world won't help - difficult child will know & continue to push button in the family. (Again, have been & continue to go through this with one tweedle on a full time basis, the other whenever he can.) Something to consider. [/QUOTE]
