Another waw/mlc and I need support

[cyclone]

Here's a tough situation. W is really starting to take sides between the kids. S9 has a lot of anger and she uses every excuse to separate herself from h. Today there was apparently some fighting between S9 and S7 and she sides with S7. She punishes S9 by not taking him to the place she promised for lunch. She drops him off with me to follow through with her discipline then takes S7 out tona different place that he wanted to go all along.

I know i can't do anything about what she is doing to her relationship with S9, but I also can't tolerate his tantrums when he doesnt get his way. It is tough being the only parent when I have two kids and one "teenager" all of them acting out.

Aaaaaaagggghhhhhhhhh.
