[QUOTE="buddy, post: 476730, member: 12886"] This is the exact scenario I feel I may be facing. difficult child said he wanted me to bring him something, and if I dont he is gonna hit me. i said well that wont work. He said am I too tough for you now? (half thinking he needs me to reassure him I can handle it, half thinking he wants to know he can act tough to get his way) i reminded him that if he does his then he wont get his way ever again because all of his choices will be gone. i say i wont have any way to help him if he does this because there are laws about assaut. (Of course I will help him, but I want him to think he has control and to try) I have done the same thing..."I am driving to the police station if you dont stop acting dangerous in the car"...as i am driving he starts begging, i will calm down I will...Please go home now... and I finally drive home , till the next time.
