Oh god yes. He used to call my daughter and me names all the time. I told him he could make up a name that we both knew would be his own special word when he was mad. He chose "tartar sauce".
That has helped a lot and although he occasionally gets mad enough to go to the real words, its not as much anymore.

he did but i quickly stopped that i am not having it . i do have my limits some things he can't control , but being rude and disrespectful is a no no ! he just gets quiet when he thinks he is about to say some thing dumb.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
