Little update, have been off my thread for a bit, just reading up on everyone else, getting some pointers on how to deal with my sitch.
The affects of my WW's actions are starting to affect on my children! S17 has shown severe anger issues since the start of all this in March, we thought we kept it from him but I learned he was on to what was going on all along. Made him even more angry resulting in multiple fights in the sport he plays, some fairly violent! Just learned he was removed from the team because of this. There have been other issues but don't want to get in to it, you get the jist. He is supposed to go to therapy tomorrow but is refusing, WW wants to threaten him by taking some luxuries away(ie... phone, car, girlfriend) if he doesn't go. I validated her by saying" I understand how you feel about S17 going to therapy but if we threaten him by taking these things away it will just make him resent you even more." He has told her he hates her! She responded by basically saying he's angry because of me! Haven't heard from her since. The reason she is adamant about him going is because she doesn't have the ability to play the bad the guy and lay down the law with him, so have someone else do it is her motto! I will try but if he doesn't want to go there is not much I can do right now. He's 17, and he dislikes his parents right now for screwing his life up, he doesn't want to listen to anything we say. I feel terrible for him as all of this is a cry for help!
