Hello ariesmom3 here, Gosh I think this is a hard one. To me that would be a way big problem. I think the way I would handle it, would be to. Have a serious talk with your son.. Tell him how you truly feel I konw he is young but to some point he will understand explain to him how wrong it is and then put it on him. Give him a example of something he could relate to and show him how bad it would make him feel. either way I'm so glad your tring to handle this early I think if not addressed it will grow with age, possibly to an extreme. Just stand your ground and if possible inset consiquences. I know you make look like the harsh parent but in the long run. It is way worth it. And when he grows up. He will be grateful.. An adults relationship with his parents steams from the one of childhood. And they don't look at who enforced more rules at that point but the parent that tried to do right by them. He will grow and respect it. good luck Ariesmom3
