[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And yes, his father was angry irritable and physical as well, so that's a factor. Turns out he had undiagnosed depression for my DH's whole childhood, so I that's why I think that's a possibility for DH. NOw his dad is on meds and way more calm.[/quote] OP, I would treat this as THE factor not A factor. Your husband doesn't know how to parent when the kid shows any agency. The reason this never showed up before is that it's deeply rooted in your husband's own childhood - he is parenting based on what he knows and what he experienced. He needs parenting classes, therapy to process how his childhood is affecting his parenting, and (maybe) meds for any mental health stuff that may be at play. This is not an excuse - he needs to take accountability and fix what's wrong. But it's way, way more common than you might expect.[/quote]
