[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 256387, member: 1233"] I am so sorry you have to deal with all of this. I have no idea what it is, but it seems very manipulative. You may never know what is behind the manipulation. Or someday you may find out a little of the reason - and it may be totally understandable or totally incomprehensible to everyone but him. I hope and pray that fresh eyes on this can figure out what is going on. I think if he is ONLY crying for husband then it is pure manipulation. He knows you probably won't buy it so he doesn't do it around you. I would NOT get a new uniform. Just in my opinion but the "desire" for a uniform must be strong enough that he EARNS the $$ for the uniform with HARD work for YOU AND husband, not just for husband. Otherwise it will be yet another uniform he trashes. If it is something HE has to spend HIS $$ on then it MIGHT not be trashed. No matter his reasons, Do To Get might be something you and husband can be united on that will apply to difficult child. As for the "long" posts - please keep them up. I like having enough info to base an opinion on. You are good at giving a snapshot of events that is very coherent and lets us see the different viewpoints of difficult child's behavior. I do long posts too, so you are not bothering me with the long posts. [/QUOTE]
