[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 558243, member: 6546"] llama-- (((Hugs))) If everything is your fault then you must be the Mom! Honestly, I think it goes with the territory with these kids! Stop engaging. Easier said than done, I know....but he is just using you to vent his frustrations the way he might beat on a punching bag. Put up a hand - tell him if he has a problem, you'd be happy to help him solve it....but if all he is going to do is yell at you, then you are walking away. And do it! Repeat as necessary. If you can get him talking about even one small thing....that will be a good starting point. You fell down the stairs? What happened - where the stairs kind of slippery? Did you trip? Were you going to fast? Did you get hurt? etc See if you can start to turn the vents into little conversations instead... Good luck! [/QUOTE]
