[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 439714, member: 3388"] Wiped Out, Please try not to feel guilty for "venting!" You have way too much on your plate with all the "garbage" that goes on between your kids. My first thought is that I really think it would be a good idea to separate them for awhile. If at all possible, I think easy child/difficult child should live with family/friends while going to summer school and not wait until it's over. easy child/difficult child is way too old and should know better then to stoop to difficult child's level. She seems to get enjoyment out of watching him blow up. This is really upsetting! difficult child sounds alot like my difficult child 2 in the fact that if difficult child 2 is aggravated by someone/something, then his absolute "best" difficult child behavior comes out. Of course this only makes things so much worse! You and husband should not have to live like this! easy child/difficult child and difficult child should not have to live like this either! It isn't healthy for anyone! I know you've spoken to easy child/difficult child many times about leaving her brother alone, not creating problems. She refuses to listen to you, to your husband. in my humble opinion, it is time for her to move out.
