[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 557781, member: 1233"] I never got much past "He started it" out of my mouth as a kid. Why? My mother's reaction was "I don't care who started it. I am finishing it and you are both/all going to go clean/mow/scrub whatever until you are too worn out to irritate me with this nonsense." And she daughter make gfgbro, cousin, any friend who was with us, and I do hard physical chores. The one neighbor kid who tried to refuse to do the chore and was going to "tell" her mom on mine got the joy of having my mother walk her home and make her tell her mother what she had done, what my mother meted out for punishment and then tell her mom how she had talked back to my mom. The other mom sent her straight back to our home to do the chore and then made ehr do two chores at home. But our parents had all ganged up on us kids previously and we knew to expect that kind of thing. It is harder today because so many parents don't talk to each other or won't punish or give a consequence to their child, much less to someone else's. by the way, if the girlfriend is at your house iwth difficult child all the time, and you need Occupational Therapist (OT) talk to difficult child in private, why can't you send the girl home? Too bad, so sad, but if he wants her to be around him then he needs to behave. Otherwise she can just go home. It is YOUR house and it seems strange that you cannot send her home if you want to talk to difficult child in private. [/QUOTE]
