[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 335651, member: 3419"] Thank you. Yes, I think what happened is that once husband let go of difficult child's arms, difficult child jerked back and fell down the 3 steps and hit his face/nose, ala Rett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara when she had her miscarriage. (What an image, LOL!) Meanwhile, I'm going to make an appointment so husband and I can come up with-some more tools ... I think we should start with-the child psychologist and make a separate appointment just for the 2 of us. We need to talk about his lack of respect for us when difficult child is at the next appointment. There just aren't enough hrs in the day! Just a little while ago, I gave difficult child the TV cord and he wanted to keep his small PSP, too. I told him no, he could charge it in the hallway. One electronic at a time, and I want to supervise its use. difficult child argued that I could see it being charged up on his bed when I walked by. Not the point, I said. Put it in the hall. difficult child pestered me and pestered me and his voice rose and he started to shout and block the door. Oh, no, here we go again. And husband isn't here this time. But somehow I was able to get difficult child to plug in the device in the hall, and difficult child was still angry and calling me names, but he did it. Clearly, he didn't learn anything about respect and not calling me names last night. I feel like the whole thing was wasted. WE get it. HE doesn't. Sigh. [/QUOTE]
