[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 534502"] Yes, it is to exhausting to challenge every one, so we just work on the ones he blames on his siblings. For example, I wouldn't care if he blamed the door that he walked into. I would care if he blamed difficult child 2 because difficult child 2 went through it before he did. When we started working on this he wouldn't agree with us. He would say something like "difficult child 2 scratched the game disk." I would say "you don't know who scratched the game disk." He would try to argue with me about it. I would send him to his room. Then while in his room he would get out anything he wanted to say and be very angry. Now he is changing tactics saying "the game disk is scratched and I know who did it". (While he glares at difficult child 2) To which I reply "No, you don't know who scratched the game disk." Then he says oh. Or, he might try to argue about it, but I tell him no arguing and he stops. Most times he doesn't have to go to his room anymore, but we've been working on this for years. This is just what we've done. Its working for us, but might not work for everyone. [/QUOTE]
