Dar, I would get her into counseling if she is saying she wants to do harm to herself. That's a cry for help for sure.

I think some of the attitude they pick up they learn from school.

Then I also think my S7 thinks he can disrespect me because his father does. He probably figures if his father does it why can't I?

This is why I have sat s7 down and told him that the way his father talks to me sometimes is just not right. I told him I don't deserved to be treated that way.

I sure hope S7 doesn't follow in JA footsteps.

It reminds me of that song Cat's in the Cradle
