[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 52363, member: 84"] Pam Travis was really bad that way when he was younger. So much so that there were days when I didn't think he'd make it to adulthood because I figured I'd finally loose it one day and just skin the boy alive. But he did make it with his skin intact. As he grew older, it did get better. Now all we have to contend with are a few "pick" holes in his bedroom walls. husband makes Travis do the repair work under husband's supervision. I'm curious, with the developmental coordination disorder I am wondering if you've had him evaled for other developmental disorders, too? With Travis I had to always try to be a step ahead, and a heck of alot more stubborn. And I could never, never give an inch. If I said there would be a certain punishment for something, I'd better follow through, or it would zip right over his head. With my girls I could sometimes do the talk thing, but never with Travis. It's always had to be straight to the point. By the time Travis was in 3rd grade I'd wised up and decided wasting money on expensive furniture was just that, a waste. I buy the cheap stuff, or garage sale stuff. I'll get the really nice furnishings when all my kids have finally left the nest. But I do remember how hard it was to deal with it day in and day out.
