[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 594112, member: 3305"] Thank you all for the caring replies. There is some revision in what I thought I heard regarding the original story...apparently I was wrong about who "threw the first punch". I spoke with Young difficult child alone yesterday and then husband...then after, both of them together. What happend is that husband told young difficult child that the situation with daughter in law's teeth needing to be fixed "sounded like a grown up problem" that young difficult child needed to take care of. It was at this point that Young difficult child yelled F You to husband and stood up to him...husband stood up too and hit young difficult child in the mouth. After ranting for several minutes, Young difficult child went towards the door and picked up a hammer and ran toward husband...husband was able to get the hammer out of Young difficult child's hands. Last night, while sitting in the room with both husband and Young difficult child, husband suggested that he and young difficult child go to counceling. Young difficult child responded with "I can't imagine living in the world with my dad without going to counceling"...he was being sarcastic. husband and I talked and decided that Young difficult child must leave our Apartment home if he has been drinking. What I didn't realise until we were all seated together last night is that young difficult child was STILL drinking. Young difficult child proceeded to tell us that he is 24 yrs old and will take his own consequences and drink when he wants to! I have told husband that we cannot have violence in our home...they can never fight again. And husband says "so what do you do when you tell them the rules and they say, "NO!" I said, call the police if he will not leave our home...but then we thought about it and decided we do not want to draw negative attention to ourselves at the Apartment we have only lived in for a few months now...not to mention our apartments are not even aware that young difficult child lives here with us. We did not think we could get him on the lease with his Felony record. So...husband and I talked further last night and have decided that since young difficult child insists on drinking regardless of our "house rule", and that violence is NOT an option again, we will make his life uncomfortable here. husband just had young difficult child's phone turned off this morning, seperated young difficult child's laundry from ours and is going to put a lock on laundry room door so that young difficult child must go to laundry mat. husband is also going to let young difficult child know that he cannont have wife and kids over to spend the night on weekends so long as he is drinking. I don't know what will happen next...I have told husband NOTHING must go wrong on this day though as it is easy child's 21st Birthday today and I will not have her birthday overshadowed by her brother's problems. Young difficult child will surely be angry when he finds out that his phone has been shut off and that his family is no longer allowed to spend nights. I suspect something will happen soon...I dread the days to come. LMS [/QUOTE]
