[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think the bigger issue here is that I do get from your first paragraph, before you even said it, that you seem to take your younger teen son's side. "He has uncontrollable anger issues." Ummmm... and you think that's... okay? You just let your house run like this? [/b]I grew up with a younger brother and it's hard enough managing relationships with siblings. I can't imagine how stressful it would be to live with a brother who has "uncontrollable anger issues" and who my mom apparently constantly makes excuses for? It's not excusable to perpetrate physical violence on anyone, let alone a parent, but I do understand how things could get that out of hand based on your enabling of your younger son's mental health problems[/quote]

I agree with this.  I, of course, have a huge issue with the older son's unprovoked slap but the cornerstone of the problem is the "uncontrollable anger issues" of the younger boy.  Your family needs help FAST, OP.  You need to get a family therapist involved ASAP to work with you and the kids, and you and your spouse need parenting classes ASAP as well.  If you don't move to change things your family situation is going to get worse very quickly.[/quote]
