Parenting Issues

Ss10 does not allow my husband And to hold a conversation with each other.... He screams, yells, needs his dad or whatever everytime we try to communicate with each other. If we hug he gets in the middle, if we are in a room wothout him he will follow or come into the room every few mins and disrupt whatever we are doing.... If hubby dismisses him in anyway he starts sulking, acting upset for no reason, then it's a downward spiral he just continues to act out until my husband baby's him to his liking...

I totally agree with that-I have the same issue here but what do you do when no type of discipline works-and I mean nothing! If we send my ss to his room he starts to kick and hit the walls, when you tell him to stop-he doesn't, when you bring him in the kitchen or the living room he flips chairs and tables oh and did i mention he is only 7?

Control... Makes complete sense. Now that I've narrowed the issue down the hard part will be getting the hubby to follow thru with nipping it in the butt....since ss allready knows what my boundaries are i feel it's more important for DH to lay down the law on this..... Now getting him to consistently do this... Well that's going to be a task *sigh* Thanks everyone your input really put things in perspective for me

Sounds like my SS8... he whines that he is bored and wants to play video games. The second DH allows him to play on the main TV we go on into the bedroom to watch TV. Guess what... 5 min later the little prick walks in (without knocking), jumps on th bed and starts wrestling with his dad. I get ANGRY and I just get up and leave the room and DH gets upset with ME because I'm not being nice??????

SD 7 used to do that all the time.She thought she was entitled to either join in , interrupt or distract every adult conversation that we had! She also constantly needed to be in the middle, one morning (SO denied that btw!!!!)she came in , pushed herself in between us and ellbowed me in the face- accident??
Anyway, SO was strict with her for month and month, she still sometimes tries to interrupt, but it is heaps better than in the past.She needed a really clear and strict way to be reminded that what she does is unacceptable.
