[quote=Anonymous] In similar situation. Didn’t really realize the ramifications of lax parenting until I realized that the kid wanting to control me was turning into the kid wanting to control people at school too. If your son is oppositional one of the things you need to consider is how healthy your relationship is with him. Advice I’ve gotten is that the relationship you have with your child is the most important thing and often it’s a broken relationship that drives kids into deeper trouble. Start by trying to slowly build your relationship with him. Offer complements as often as you can. I know it’s nearly impossible some days but if the kid does something right please tell him that. Dish in the sink, up on time. Anything just find natural ways to complement and heal the relationship. Kids like this get so much negative feedback they are probably craving something positive from other people. [/quote]
