Howdy campers!
Allow me to introduce mahse'f .

I'm Charles from the Denver, CO area and I'm turning to this forum for assistance in understanding how to raise my 7 yr old autistic boy in the midst of parents not being on the same page re: discipline. (Wife's a liberal and I'm a çonservative) I'm retired, so I watch the young 'un while the wife works 40 hours. We have 2 schools of discipline: I do, she doesn't!
Example; I don't deal with disrespect from my 18 yr old (another story, completely) OR my 7 yr old, autistic or not. The 7 yr old heard his big brother tell me "F*** you, old man" and now every day he tells me "F*** you" and his mother really just ignores the behaviour and advises me to do the same.
My marriage and family are so dysfunctional, it's already given me a stroke and stress related heart attack. There's probably WIDOW MAKER the sequel, anytime soon.
Any input would be appreciated.
