[QUOTE="Alisonlg, post: 53312, member: 2894"] I totally agree with the others on the toilet and sink issue...you need to stop following behind and cleaning up the mess. You've given him the control of the situation. And, thus, you feel exactly as the pawn would feel...awful and used. Either make him clean it up (yes, I *know* from experience how that is MUCH easier said than done! We're dealing with explosive children here), ignore the mess (yes, I *know*...you want your house clean, so this is a hard one for you to just "let go"), or get your husband to pick up the clean up duty for the time being. At the very least, the clean up can be done LATER...it does not need to be done immediately. By doing it immediately, you're satisfying his sense of control. ::::hugs:::: [/QUOTE]
