[QUOTE="Malika, post: 464640, member: 11227"] Hello and welcome. First, I'd like to say that you really can't know whether the way you were with your son is the cause of his current behaviour... it may be, it may not be, or more likely it's a factor in a much more complicated picture. Blaming yourself is understandable but your son [I]is [/I]responsible for what he is doing right now and even if you had been that mythical "perfect parent", you might have ended up in the same place... So, to state the obvious, the only place you can go from is here. Your son is behaving in a way that is unacceptable. Stealing and lying are not very nice, particularly when it involves one's own family, and more to the point the former is a serious crime. What do you do about that? Well, I suppose you have to devise a campaign that will bring an end to the bully's ransom under which he is holding you and your husband. I agree with DDD that you would ideally need to make a totally concerted plan with your husband. You, of course, will have to decide on the details of that. There comes a time in everyone's life when enough is enough. I think you have come to that time now. [/QUOTE]
