[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 565596, member: 3907"] Thanks for the hugs. It really helps to be able to talk about this here, where I don't have to get into the "back story" about why difficult child is the way he is. I'm very impressed with husband. He's working at home today so I had a chance to talk to him first thing, before he saw the staff report. He is very disappointed, but didn't seem as shocked as I expected him to be. He's going to go to difficult child's place this evening for a "man-to-man talk". I hope it has the desired effect, but right now my confidence is not too high. Susie, husband would try medications, I think. He has in the past, but the SSRI side effects were too much for him. I think he would be willing to talk to a therapist as well. The challenge there is finding a good one. My therapist can't see him due to ethical boundaries (since he is one of the things I talk about, I guess), but he might be able to provide a referral. I've told husband that I will not allow difficult child to interact with the younger Monsters until he gets his medications and his behaviour back in order. I am in the process of putting my Rhino Skin back on for the Christmas battles ahead. difficult child is not going to be happy with the results of his choices on the home front. I suppose it's only fair, given that I'm not happy about it either. [/QUOTE]
