[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP is the boy your friend’s only child? [/quote] Stop trying to blame parents,. My friend had three kids, and one was completely unmanageable while the other two were angels. Some parents get away with taking Parenting 101 and pat themselves on the back for being so "good at it," but other kids are born more challenging, and their parents get PhD's in parenting and no credit for what it takes. And it is a long, hard journey -- you don't train these kids overnight. OP, just be honest and tell her you are having a hard time getting him to listen and follow the rules. She may have some tips for what works with him, but since you said she seems surprised by the behavior when you did tell her, maybe not. In which case, you play on neutral ground and only with her there too.[/quote]
