[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This morning I absolutely lost it and told him point blank that he is the reason at the center of his problems. If he is experiencing negativity, it is because he is behaving in ways that generate that reaction in me and others. He isn't entitled to endless understanding; at a certain point he has to look in the mirror.[/quote] I think he needed to hear it, OP. I don't blame you for losing it. I lost it so many times at my ADHD and Asperger's son! At least he's learned not to reflexively blame others without good reason. If such criticism also comes with strong support for his needs the rest of the time, it's a good balance. It would be a dereliction of duty NOT to address the issues clearly and honestly. We don't want to be enablers, but supporters. [/quote]
