[QUOTE="1905, post: 560561, member: 2668"] I've been there..(hugs). The only exception is that he hated husband and I both equally. Be strong, don't let difficult child "pick up" anything from your house. It's not his house anymore, he's thinking he's entitled to everything just as before. He is just seeing how hard being on his own actually is and he doesn't like it. Of course he's going to blame you.....you have to be strong and give it time....it may take a long time.....but he will come to respect you, your decisions, and your home because you aren't going to allow anything else. It's going to be much harder for him to get what he wants from you by showing this uglyness. He will come to see that. Right now, he's thinking you are going to be so upset by this that you'll do anything to get back in his good graces. How wrong he is. Be strong, don't engage him. He has to learn this lesson on his own. We had to actually take a restraining order out on our difficult child. He needed to be treated that harshly, he did learn a lot. He's doing well for himself, very repectful and kind. He has never lived here again. I am very proud of him. One day, you'll be proud of your son as well. It's a tough time, you can get through it. The goal is for you child to become a productive adult. You know what to do. [/QUOTE]
