[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 312817, member: 1991"] There are some really bad parenting habits here that have not been helping. No wonder it is such a mess. You were right to be critical of your own behaviour in this, but again - extenuating circumstances. There need to be some very strict ground rules put in place, but it doesn't sound like SuperDad is in any state to understand them. However, until that happens, there will only be backward progress. It's late, I should be in bed, so I can't say much more right now. I'm only up this late because of problems of my own (which I can't share with the mob - they're non-difficult child-related, plus a tad specialised). I'll try to help more tomorrow. Hang in there. I do have some ideas for you. But for now - I strongly suggest you get some earplugs and detach, big time. Do your utmost to not react. This kid needs a hero, and the first thing that needs to be done, is a total back-away from reactivity. The kid is only going to react to the poor example set by dad. Marg [/QUOTE]
