[QUOTE="Star*, post: 107334, member: 4964"] OH .... I was so hopeful when you wrote your post and said that difficult child was working with husband and getting along well. The honeymoon hu? I can totally understand why husband did what he did to difficult child - he figured if he gets disrespected by his own son in front of his workers - it will and would have started with them. I've worked construction too long to know how the ego goes with the status. IT wasn't the right thing to do, but it wasn't necessarily the wrong thing to do. The hmss and reallys" BRAVE! I remember when it got so close to blows in our house - part of me thinks if husband had put difficult child in his place somethings would have stopped behavior wise - and then there is a part of me that knows difficult child was abused by his bio father and it would have ruined their relationship (DF and Dude) The restraint DF showed at times was beyond amazing to me. I also think the idea of working at separate places is a good idea. Finding out Mummy and Dada aren't going to bail you out - very good life lesson. Hugs for it all - and for staying sane in a field of macho buffalos Star [/QUOTE]
