[QUOTE="Roxona, post: 681307, member: 19076"] Thanks, Pigless. SS10 throws tantrums at school, but I do not believe he rages quite so intensely. I do know that the tantrums are enough to cause enough concern at school to warrant a wellness team to handle him. As for a sleep over, I don't have a problem with that. In fact, if he hadn't owed his dad a night of going to bed early, he would have gone too. I'd prefer to have someone over here than have him go over to their house because of his behavior, but I'm sure there will be other sleep over opportunities. My husband and I had a very unpleasant discussion about the bike last night. He swears he didn't think I would be upset with it. I was upset on several different levels. One was that a couple of weeks ago I had mentioned that the boys' bike were getting a little small, but still okay for now (Ideas for birthday/Christmas presents). SS10 grabbed onto that and has beating us with it ever since. We told him he wasn't getting a new bike right now because it wasn't in the budget. After being told that repeatedly, he traded his bike with a younger neighbor child because that child had a better bike than he did, and SS10 wanted it. I made him trade it back. Second, my husband rewarded the rage behavior. Not only does it reward the behavior, but I believe it cements SS10's belief that it was probably my idea for him not be able to go to the sleep over. Last, I think I should have been the one to give him the bike. My relationship with SS10 is hard, and he hates me. He thinks I cause all the bad things to happen to him, and I rarely have good opportunities to give him positive rewards. My husband didn't see any of this. In fact, he thought he did good because he bought the bike from the younger neighbor child's father and saved us money. SS10 got what he wanted. I just don't see have my husband couldn't see any of this. [/QUOTE]
