[QUOTE="sjexpress, post: 400224"] Thank you all for your response and helpful advice. I definitly weaken when it comes to major punishment as he then carries on about that punishment and things then get really bad around here. What ended up happening this morning is that I had to take 5 yr old easy child for yearly physical so husband came home from work to watch difficult child. difficult child was furious about this because for some reason, he and husband are like oil and water and whenever husband start to speak to difficult child when he is in one of his moods, difficult child goes nuts. Anyway, husband and I told difficult child we would not call the school but when they called us we would say it was an illegal absence and please send someone to take difficult child to school. I left ( husband had to block difficult child from getting in our way). difficult child then called me on the cell phone hysterical that he did not want anyone coming to get him. I told him to get dressed and let Dad drive you in and he still said NO! About an hr. later, husband called me to say he had just dropped difficult child off at school with no problems. Apparently difficult child was really freaking out about someone coming to the house and getting him and he was crying and shaking so husband told him to just end this, do the right thing by getting washed up and dressed and he would take him. husband told difficult child that some of his decisions have consequences that neither he nor I can get him out of or help him with. ie; going to school is the law! When difficult child got home from school, all was fine. I spoke briefly about the morning problems and said it would never be tolerated the refusal to go to school. We shall see....I hope he was scared enough that we did not call the school but when difficult child gets into one of his moods, he just makes bad choices! Jan [/QUOTE]
