[QUOTE="Steely, post: 178577, member: 3301"] Very interesting, and something I have seen repeatedly with my difficult child. It seems to be almost a problem of sorting and processing the information they receive, and since they have such little sense of self at this age, they are easily identifying with these tense situations. This was particularly bad for us when difficult child was around 12, and bio-dad waltzed back into the picture. Of course bio-dad blamed me for the entire world being off it's axis, and difficult child was consumed with anger towards me for months. It was really, really hard. I can say that it has gotten better in time. Again, I think my son is finally getting a sense of his own identity, and his own personal self. However, I can tell you right now that if one person crosses me, my difficult child still becomes like a papa bear towards his mom and irate with whoever is making me upset. Maybe that is somewhat normal, especially with single moms and sons - they feel protective a bit more than average. [/QUOTE]
