[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 301073, member: 1233"] Of course we didn't laugh or make you feel small for talking about this. It is a HUGE problem that most of us face on a daily basis. It went on for YEARS with Wiz. YEARS. Finally he just could not live here ever again. He is now 19 and has THANKED me for not letting him hurt his siblings. He rubs my sore hand and kisses it "better" if he sees I am hurting. He really beat himself up at first over the hand damage. Well, at first after he realized how horrible his behavior had been and how it hurt everyone he knows. You DO have to think carefully and make concrete plans. If he does X then he looses Y. If he argues then he loses Z and Y. If he shows ANY violence the police/sheriff will be called via 911. Period. If he hurts anyone, he must leave the home and go into some sort of foster care or Youth Shelter. Do whatever you need to do to keep everyone safe. If you know someone see if they will store an overnight bag for you, Just In Case. In case he gets so mad that it is too dangerous to have all of you around and you havve to make a run for it. Do NOT give difficult child advance warning other than a big poster with the things you want him to do nad the consequences for not complying with those rules.Maybe we should let the kids decidce [/QUOTE]
