[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 381080, member: 1514"] I was fairly lucky that when Cory was younger he wasnt physically aggressive with us. He did have a mouth on him that could put a sailor to shame but he would never lay a finger on me. Even now he wouldnt. He would probably kill anyone who did. When he did get mouthy with me I was able to diffuse much of it with humor. That boy is so ticklish it isnt funny. Between the combination that I can tickle him till he can barely breathe plus he wont touch me back, it often turns bad situations into hilarious romps that start out on the couch but end up with us on the floor in a heap. I wouldnt give in to that barking servant order thing either. You arent his slave. You are his mother. You werent put on this earth to do his bidding. Lord knows you dont want to train him to treat his wife that way. He is old enough now to be fixing you food and bringing it to you if you are tired. Let him go get you a glass of drink or ice tea. My boys have been doing that for years! They think its normal to fix their girlfriend's/wives plates at dinner time. Tony does it for me. We do for each other. I think I would tell him I dont hear certain tones of voice or something like that. When nice attitudes are used, you will respond. If not, be invisible. [/QUOTE]
