[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 658304, member: 18516"] Everyone is different but I will tell you that sticking to your guns will pay off. Up until now he has been able to manipulate you by telling you how dire his situation is. Remember, our Difficult Child count on our emotions, they want us to feel sorry for them and they will go to many lengths to make that happen. By keeping your responses simple and without emotion he will learn that he can no longer manipulate you. This however does not mean that he won't try something new once in a while to see if he can catch you off guard. I have also found with my son that no matter how bad his situation was my suggestions on how he could change things for the better were always met with an excuse as to why that wouldn't work. You are doing really well JulieAnn. :staystrong: [/QUOTE]
