[QUOTE="Marg's Man, post: 376217, member: 4085"] I'm surprised Marg didn't mention this story - she wasn't there at the time but knows it. difficult child 3 went through a stage like this (still does to some extent). One day when Marg was away he was being especially bad. We were at home alone so I shocked him a little when I adopted the line [I]S**t Happens - live with it[/I] with him. It surprised him enough that I was able explain that occasionally [often!] things don't work out as we would expect or wish. These days we use the more publicly acceptable [I]It Happens[/I] and he realises that [Shock/Horror] the world does NOT revolve around him - usually. Marg's Man [/QUOTE]
