[quote=Anonymous]I think people have come up with some good ideas, like scheduling, and presenting choices. I also think you need to have a session with them where you "clear the air" and begin a do-over, with some rules about communication. You've been out of their lives a long time. You kind of blame their mother but you know it was your fault. I think you should offer them an apology on some level and ask for a fresh start with them. I think a lot of their behavior may be anger toward you. Brainstorm with them about some house rules you might want to consider: No yelling No complaining unless you make a suggestion about what to do instead No putdowns Dad and Larla and Larlo Forever That sort of thing[/quote]
