[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 76422, member: 3647"] Well, nobody has to tell you that what you did took care of things for the immediate, but will cause problems in the long haul. He was pretty much rewarded for acting mean, and difficult child/PCI is going to resent him even more. You do know that. What you may or may not know, is that you are not the first and will not be the last person on this board who has given in at a weak moment to get a break. We all do it. Best thing that you can do is let it go. You can't change something that you already did. If you choose to explain to your oldest why you let the middle guy go, that is up to you. Otherwise, learn from that mistake and move forward. 'Tis not the end of the world (and may not be the last time you give in, either. Raising difficult children is not for the faint of heart) Hang in there! [/QUOTE]
