[QUOTE="username40, post: 729231, member: 22862"] Me too, my wife can ignore him and his disrespect, I've found I can for a time, until I can't. For instance I grew up very poor, I always remember filth and rodents in our house. So eating in the rooms and leaving filth everywhere is a sticking point for me. I do work hard not to be overly strict or put my standards on the kids. My standards are near Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) levels of clean and orderly. He eats in his room and will literally throw a bowl of cereal with milk in his closet, soaking clothes and just leave it to rot. He'll do this until almost every dish in the house is in his room covered in rotting food and filth. And he'll refuse to clean it "what are you gonna do? Can't take me to court for not cleaning a dish". So his mother and I take the dishes out and cleans up while he smirks. It's enough to make you nuts. This is what I deal with, and I can't let it go. Ugghhhh I need to just move out and hopefully my wife comes to her senses and sends the 2 little ones over to my place until he's gone. She refuses to press charges for the crimes he does like stealing our car, refuses to have him put in a home, it should just be her and him then. It's too volatile and toxic with me there because I still hold him accountable which brings out his crazy. [/QUOTE]
