[quote=Anonymous]The most you can for your son right now is to talk to your husband about his behavior even if he gets defensive. Your son needs an advocate for himself now and you as his mother are the one and only person who can do that for him. Stress to your husband how the way he talks to your son is hurting his self-esteem and may cause emotional distress later down the road. This is a very delicate time in your son's life now, on the brink of being a teen-ager and he doesn't need to deal with a Father berating him at home on a regular basis. If possible, perhaps have your son talk to his Father directly about how his words are making him feel. If all this fails, I suggest family counseling for the three of you. Maybe your husband can learn some new communication techniques he can practice at home. Good luck to all of you.[/quote]
