[QUOTE="Janna, post: 19400, member: 2737"] I like Kris's suggestion, and that is what I would do, without a doubt. Although, my kids aren't snotty. However, my wonderful, lovely 10 year old has developed my sense of sarcasm [img]:rolleyes:[/img] which is truly annoying. Am I as annoying? Probably [img]:surprise:[/img] I can't imagine living with someone like that. I'm really sorry you're going through it. If you can ignore it, please do try. When my son was raging, his TSS taught me this art of "flat affect" and how to say it once and then it's over. So, for example, he'd ask for the TV, knowing good and well he didn't have privelages. He asked if he could watch tv, I calmly reminded him he didn't have privelages, and he whined, walking behind me for almost two hours LOL! Obviously, it was nerve racking, but over time, it stopped. I guess my point is, if you can ignore it consistently, and let him know you won't tolerate it, hopefully over time, it may subside. Hugs, Janna [/QUOTE]
