[QUOTE="witzend, post: 113315, member: 99"] When M was refusing to participate in anything other than his la la land life where he was Mr. Dominant, and everyone else was supposed to care about his anger, I took all of his stuff and threw it in the yard. I stomped on the connection for his PS2 until it broke (don't come back to me for it!). He got mad and took a glancing blow swing at husband, and I was ready with the phone and 911. Assault in progress. husband's lip was fat and bleeding, and M was arrested. That was the last he lived at our house. I'm sure that you would handle it with much more grace than I did. I didn't have you guys to back me up and give me strength then. Seriously, I like totoro's idea that you disconnect his internet access. I would also start boxing up everything in his room. "Oh, happy happy day! I get your bedroom back! I'm going to make a sewing (exercise; meditation; whatever) room! Isn't that cool? A little fresh paint and it will be as good as new!" Then I'd put the boxes on the porch or in the yard. It seems like a big part of the problem is that there is no communication going on whatsoever. It's drastic, but he'll start talking for sure. I agree, you can't live like that forever. [/QUOTE]
