[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 665160, member: 15801"] Oh gosh I think we have all fallen for manipulation! I think our kids are masters....but after a while you learn to recognize it for what it is...and then they get more desperate and at least in our case it can get ridiculous. When my son was 18 he had his wisdom teeth out and wanted me to give him the Vicodin more often than it was prescribed....and then just wanted me to give him the bottle to manage himself! I wouldn't do it...so he threatened to call the police and tell them I was withholding hiss medications! Ha I told him go ahead and he did!! Well of course they came. They talked to me and I said I was giving him the medications as prescribed, my son had a drug problem and I was not going to give him the bottle of Vicodin. Of course they understood and told him if he didn't like my rules he could leave. Boy was he mad! Anyway their manipulation can get nuts once you recognize it for what it is. Stay strong. [/QUOTE]
