[QUOTE="AmericanGirl, post: 539032"] Thank you all for your thoughts to this thread and the other I started yesterday. Your insights mean a lot. As soon as I finished reading, something struck me. There are three difficult child's: 1. The difficult child I think he is. 2. The difficult child he really is. 3. The difficult child he thinks he is. I knew about the first two but the last was what I realized today. He has to keep up the illusion so he drops from into #3 on occasion. I don't know which one I am dealing with. That's part of what is so hard...on top of having the immaturity and anger and passive aggressive crud too. I'm going to start thinking of him as having an alter ego. Geez...I'm sitting here like a cartoon character with a light bulb over my head. LOL [/QUOTE]
