[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 661682, member: 18958"] Lil, did he do it at school? The question is this: Does he do it in other circumstances outside the family? If he does not do it in school, where it would cost his self-image. If he does not do it in school because there would be no secondary gain, i.e., nobody would be likely to respond by giving him what he wants. This would point to manipulation, that he does the behavior with family for control. If he does it only in some situations, and not in others, this is a chosen behavior. He keeps hurting people by his behavior, i.e. elderly people who only wanted to help him.... What would be your most responsible response as a mother, putting aside your feelings, now that he is an adult? [/QUOTE]
