[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 566008"] LMS, I have been thinking about you and following this thread... sorry I havent written sooner. I will really be thinking of you tomorrow. I think your husband is right about one thing, you cant be in the business of policing your difficult child. That will get in the way of your relationship with him. He has a PO so let them do all the policing! I think listing expectations is good.... think of it is boundaries for living in your home. However I do think you need to think ahead of time how you will handle it if he violates one of those boundaries, because in true difficult child fashion at some point he probably will. You might think about what are hard core boundaries, one for which you will tell him he absolutely cannot live there, and ones that you want but are willing to remind him on. Hugs I know this is pretty hard and scary... but LMS you have shown us all that you are a very strong woman!!! And by the way I totally can relate on the menopause stuff... in the process myself.
