[QUOTE="KFld, post: 48942, member: 2442"] I wrote a long reply yesterday and then when I went to submit it our internet went down at work!!! Anyway, when my difficult child was at the point of your difficult child, before he became a full blown addict, I went away for a week and it was so stressful leaving him home with husband. Reason being, I was at the point of total enabling and now allowing or trusting husband to make decisions because I was too busy protecting difficult child. It was a horrible week and I couldn't wait to come home. You and wife seem to be more on the same page then my husband and I were back then, so I would suggest you and wife deciding together how you should handle consequences etc. if rules are not followed while she is gone. Maybe the two of you should talk to difficult child together, set the rules and let him know if he breaks them, you and wife will decide together when she gets home, where it will go from there. This way he doesn't feel he can manipulate and play you while she is gone and you don't have to freak out about how you will handle all of this. Just a thought. Sorry your summer is starting off with such a BANG!!! [/QUOTE]
