[QUOTE="C.J., post: 260816, member: 1987"] Kjs, There was good news in this post! "I got my merit increase at work, plus a ton of overtime last week. So last night I am sitting with husband and said I am going to logon to the bank and see what my pay was (payday)." and "husband laid into him without yelling which was good." husband is sitting with you discussing finances (not all on your shoulder) and husband is disciplining difficult child (You did not have to the bad guy). I hope husband is being more the parent and less the good buddy to your son. GvcMom said it first, but I agree. Remove all computer access for difficult child for some time - and replace his computer time with something he doesn't like much - perhaps there is some yard work (leaves, twigs, branches, pinecones) that need to be cleaned up. Does the basement or garage need to be swept out or re-organized? Have you got any junk that needs to be moved out? How about holes that need to be dug for some flowers or shrubs? [/QUOTE]
