Gosh, you are good parents and so strong.  I am sure we have enabled Nathan cause he is an entitled, lazy, unmotivated person.  My husband says tough love and he is a teacher and was basically the only middle school teacher who did the hard stuff.  All his students adore him but my son hates him unless he gets what he wants..... I AM THE WEAK LINK and let Nathan manipulate me and get in between us.  I am letting my husband take control on this one.  I don't want anything to do with decision because I feel myself weakening and I am literally sick to my stomach.  My head is spinning and I have been playing the victim this morning crying and saying woah is me.  I see you've had 3 difficult kids and have done the right thing.....I am not good at tough love - I HATE it.  I know it is the only thing we can do but I literally don't know how to do it.  So my husband will do the tough thing and I am staying out of it cause I will ruin it.........My son is blocked on my phone so he can only contact my husband.  OMG i hate this so much.
