[QUOTE="Farmwife, post: 368343, member: 8617"] I tried this and it just turned into another manipulation for difficult child to use as a weapon. After a pretty spectacular meltdown I told him to leave the house to cool down. He refused. He got mouthy for the unpteenth time and I had enough. I don't tolerate being called the B word. I smacked him. It turned into a greco roman wrestling match mixed with a fist fight at our back door. I bloodied his nose with a solid punch because he had me in a "sleeper hold". All along baby diva was crying in her room. Whole time difficult child tells me I needed to calm down. I told him I didn't need to calm down that he needed to get the heck out of MY bleepin house. Ah yes, good times around here. DCFS came out and saw that he was 15 and 6'2" and decided he pretty much had what was coming to him and we got a host of useless services. Now difficult child tries to egg me on, on purpose and then he plays the "poor me I'm abused" card. Somehow my defending myself against his intimidation tyrades is now a way for him to play the victim. Worst part is he actually believes it and feels sorry for himself. Now he leaves when I tell him to but he slams the door hard enough to rattle the entire house and calls me the B word when he is too far for me to run and catch... One of these days I swear I am going to snap and really knock his clock off. Then DCFS can come take him and keep him permanently as far as I'm concerned. *Sigh* no point really. It really hoovers how these difficult child's can take a normal, happy and good parent and turn them into dark miserable trolls. I am soooo happy it worked for you though. You maybe want to come whip mine into shape? lol :winking: (can you tell it's been a difficult child kinda day around here?) [/QUOTE]
