[QUOTE="Blessed Mama, post: 448598, member: 12458"] Mum of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Kiddo - That was a wonderful and eye opening reply. I posted an introductory thread already, so I won't completely repeat myself, but I certainly can relate to the power shift in the household, and the difficulties of being a single parent. Not sure about any other single parents on here, but my daughter's father is not helpful AT ALL, and would, in fact, benefit her more if he would not have contact. I'm actually in the process of trying to have full legal custody - something I did not need prior because he was so absentee, and we were never married, so we didn't have to address custody in a divorce. Sorry - got a little off track there. Anyhow, I think you know your son best, Connie, and hopefully military school will be the answer for your family. It sounds like he is an intelligent boy with a strong future ahead, and I hope the family relationship is strengthened, and not injured by him not living at home. I can also relate to damaged items, a TV thrown across the room, holes punched in walls, etc. with my daughter. She tends to spiral into very angry, very fast, and has minimal coping skills, and a difficult time regaining self control. [/QUOTE]
