[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 278253, member: 3419"] Wethree, I hear you. Sigh. I agree with MWM and Fran, that you should find a new home for the pets and that you should go into duty-mode. Don't expect love at this point. On either of your parts. Perhaps you could let a friend "borrow" the pets like a foster care situation. And don't tell your difficult child where they are. It would be a consequence for his actions. "What do you think would happen to the puppy if it can't breathe?" "It would die." ... can become, "What do you think would happen to the puppy if you torment it? It goes to a better home. We will teach you how to control yourself, and how to express your anger more appropriately." Your daughter can visit the puppy (alone, with-o difficult child). [/QUOTE]
