[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 329812, member: 1233"] Another mom who used to be here was told by social services that she was responsible for providing a home for her unruly and abusive difficult child but she did NOT have to provide one he LIKED. She could make any rules she wanted, and enforce them just not with physical violence. Provide only the basic mattress on the floor and 7 outfits - NOT outfits the kid wanted, just thrift shop clothes. No tv, cell phone, music, nothing. Just food - NOT what the kid wants (I would cook stuff he doesn't like and refuse to allow him to bring food in to store in the home.) I would use this tack if by any chance you get conned into taking him back. He won't stay under your rules and you cannot force him to stay, but you don't have to change rules to ones he likes. I am so sorry. Go to a Domestic Violence center and get one of the lawyers they recommend. They will have ways to help you. They sure did me. [/QUOTE]
