[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's really hard when personalities clash like this. I hope you guys can find some ways to connect with your kids so that there are more positive interactions to balance out the negative. Maybe also think about way you contribute to the dynamic - not saying these kids are not exhausting but it's often the case that both people contribute to negative interactions; maybe you can figure out how to break the patterns if you are watching out for them. If you are dreading their presence this much, imagine how much they must be dreading being home for the summer as well! [/quote] As I said in my OP I am working on not engaging when he starts going down his rabbit holes. And he is oblivious about how he impacts us. That is part of the issue. He is definitely not dreading being home. [/quote]
