Hey Ant,

I saw your reply to Gardener, but it seems your still assuming a bunch from what you posted.

Let's go under the assumption that it's directed at you, though. What can you do?

Acknowledge how he feels, and understand that in a way, he is struggling and reaching out as best he can, currently..

I would suggest that you discuss with your C, and try and formulate a plan. They may suggest getting him to C as well, and that may be what is needed, so you'll have to plan on that possibility as well.

I don't see much else you can do. You can react negatively to what is happening, and that won't help one bit. Compassion and help, in the face of even getting stuff like this thrown at you may eventually help.

I know I am not offering much here, but we're seeing things only through the context of forum postings, and don't know you or your family, and why I am suggesting you look to outside help.

I will keep you and your family in my thoughts though, as I have been doing, and say some prayers for healing for you.

Peace, Antlers, and try and work on your positive attitude as that will carry over into your day to day life with your kids..
