[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 376864, member: 7916"] Cactus, My husband was in denial about our difficult child for a long time and also did a lot to undermine my authority. Finally, my therapist recommended that I go away for a weekend. I needed a break and husband needed to see reality. So, I left a reluctant husband home with both kids (they were 6 and 3 at the time) and visited a friend for the weekend...It worked like magic. When I got home, husband was suddenly on board for medication. I was away for less than 36 hours, but he had had enough. husband and I still disagree on discipline sometimes and I have to remind him that we shouldn't disagree in front of the kids, but overall we are on the same page. He just needed a reality check before he could get there. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
