[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 278613, member: 3305"] Wow, yep, does sound like difficult child made himself pretty comfy at your house this past weekend. I hear you on getting them to respect our stuff and us. My difficult child's still walk into our house and make themselves comfy with whatever is in the fridg, the computer, and I've even woken up to dust the guest bedroom and found young difficult child lying in the bed...no idea he was here until then. Seems hard for them to figure out that they are "GUESTS" now...this is not their house to do as they please. What would bother me most is the kicking and I'm Outta here behavior...that would have to end before he was aloud back over. Apologies that really mean I won't do it again would be in order. I don't think you're an idiot at all...You just didn't engage escalating behaviors back and forth between the two of you...that was good. I mean, I dont' think he was being very rational at the time he kicked and blasted outta there...and you know you can't argue/talk/convince someone that is in an irrational state to stop and think. Give it a few days, ya know, then try and talk to him about how you felt, how his behavior affected you. Does sound like he was testing your limits though, huh? Hugs, Tammy [/QUOTE]
