[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 569150, member: 13882"] Hi BKS, Holidays are tricky and stressful when it comes to difficult children, aren't they? If your son was asked to leave your house, and he complied, he knows where you stand. If he's looking forward to getting together at grandma's, I hope he will keep it together during that time for the sake of the family. If he doesn't, I'm with Hound - it's up to grandma to set behavior limits in her home - you are not responsible for his behavior, even though grandma probably should try to understand and 86 the booze for Christmas since she's aware of his issues. However, real life doesn't work that way. I guess ideally what we would want our difficult children to take away from this holiday is that we love them and want them to be a part of our family traditions...that they belong there, despite their current lifestyle.
