[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 370164, member: 3419"] I'm a little confused about your psychiatric trying to provoke B to see his anger. Telling him he is not like other 17-yr-olds is NOT a good way to provoke his anger. That should be told to him in a safe, low-key, logical tone. Very matter-of-fact. If you want to provoke your son to see his anger, it makes more sense to tell him he can have something or do something, and then tell him you changed your mind. That will set him off the track between constancy and change, which is a typical trigger, and also puts the blame on you rather than on him. Do NOT put the blame on him for being different. There is nothing he can do about it. He was born that way. There ARE things he can do to cope with-being different, and in some cases, to rise above it. Just my 2 cents worth. [/QUOTE]
