[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 565785"] Agree wholeheartedly TL & SS. Fortunately, we have no chaos. PC15 & difficult child are close, and difficult child is VERY mindful of his need to be a good role model. And really - they talk mostly football. difficult child helped pc15 study for finals this week. Plus they are on opposite schedules- by the time easy child gets home - difficult child is at work. (New job is 3-11) if there was even a hint of anything detrimental to easy child - difficult child would be out. We're pretty connected to pc15, he knows the scoop & we maintain communication. Having his brother back in our lives has been good for him. If anything, difficult child is more a 2nd class citizen here and that's clear. It's odd as the parent- so used to cutting the brownies into exactly equal pieces- but we don't give to or pay a dime toward anything for difficult child. We make family plans without him - though we include him if he requests when possible. Like tonight- h bought court side NBA tix and is taking easy child to the game & dinner. difficult child was not invited. We don't make plans for him. Contrastingly, if pc18 came home- we'd move heaven & earth to find a 3rd ticket or h would give up his so they could go together. On a surprising good note- difficult child volunteered to put up the outside lights for me. [/QUOTE]
