[QUOTE="onmyown, post: 540424, member: 14903"] let me see if i can fill in some blanks......as far as the bio dad, he is not in the picture, he was very abusive to myself as well as my children, hence the reason he is no longer in the picture. He is a crack addict. As far as mental illness i had an aunt on my fathers side that was slow. Their father always claimed he had mental issues but nothing that ever came out of his mouth was the truth. As far as the abuse to my children the worse abused was the one I have issues with. As far as a neuropsychologist evaluation, no he has not had one. Definantly something i will look into. When i took my son for an evaluation last week due to his outburst, he went into the office and was a totally different child, he is very manipulative. As far as the SO....they do seem to get along at times, sometimes get along great. His diagnosis came from the mental health office. We live in a small community and resources are limited as far as getting him the help i feel that he needs. Growing up my childrens biological father was the primary caregiver, due to the fact that he could not hold down a job I had to be the breadwinner in the household. Caregiver is the wrong word, he was the older person in the home while i was working. I have tried every form of rules and consequences for him...standing in the corner, time out, sentences, having him make the punishment, taking things away from him, which seems to make him even angrier, he feels that if its his I have no right to take it away.
