[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 196193, member: 84"] I was with you up until right there. That, in my humble opion is pure manipulation. And any kid (easy child and difficult child alike) will pull it if it works on the parents. Nichole's emtions flipped so fast we often couldn't keep up with them. But even during her most volitile episodes she has never distroyed property or become violent with family members. Now, boyfriend is another matter altogether. Which when I pointed out that her outburst [B]only[/B] happened there with him enough times she finally listened......They began to stop there too. Odd how she can now get just as angry, yet behave like a normal person...even with boyfriend. I'm not saying giving him another chance and writing the contract up isn't a good idea. And Janet is right that it may get worse before it gets better. But I as the parent would be watching for situations where I might be being manipulated and find solid ways to stop it. Easier said than done sometimes. And we didn't have the addiction issues either. Nichole at her worst would manipulate anyone. Except me cuz she knew it wouldn't get past me. But boy would she pull some lu lu's on the school, friends, and her sibs. sheesh I wouldn't dwell on the moving out part either. I'd state it like In Order to Live Here or something. I hope he agrees, and will keep fingers crossed he will give it an honest try. (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
