[QUOTE="Shari, post: 411946, member: 1848"] Maybe H needs to ask his ex to keep the kids for a while so you CAN deal with difficult child. Come bedtime, the kids go back to mom's for a while if its a crucial night for sleep. And if difficult child is going to start getting physical, then remove YOURSELF. I understand space constraints as we live in a very small house (800sf, and at one time, there was 6 of us), but they make very small one person tents that pop up and down in a few seconds. If difficult child knows you'll "do something" when step-daughter is there, then you need to find a way around her loop-hole, or it won't end. What would she do if you walked out the door in the midst of her screaming? I know none of these ideas are great. they're all hard to implement, but you gotta figure out something, and being that its going on years, now, you know as well as anyone that the eventual "fix" isn't going to be easy.
