[QUOTE="Ironbutterfly, post: 695559, member: 19951"] I am sorry SWOT, you have stood by him and taken the brunt of his frustration. He really needs to get help to deal with stress that life brings to all of us, not just him. How in the world is he going to be able to handle raising his son when son does something to anger him, as all kids do down the road as he grows and becomes a teenager? He needs to let things work out through the court and step back and take one day at a time. He needs also to stop using you as his whipping boy. He's throwing a grown up temper tantrum, he wants what he wants now because in his mind he wants it done now, wants to to know now. Well life isn't that way nor will it ever be that way. Step back from it as much as you can. I believe it was you that gave me some good advice when I first came here saying "Just because someone is mentally ill doesn't give them the right to mistreat people. Unless they are totally psychotic, no excuse" or something to that affect. That opened my eyes with my son and his temper and rage issues. It enabled me to free myself from letting him rage on me when life was in chaos for him. I hung up on him when he raged. He learned not to do that because I wouldn't allow it. Hugs [/QUOTE]
