We took Blake today to a karate school today to get sign-up for classes. Frankly, Blake misbehavior is completely out of control and my Grandmother thinks this will help. I think it will.
However the kicker comes that this could have all been advoided and save $75 a month. My Grandmother is old and so unless it is extremely major, she has a very live and let live attitude. This means he really has few boundaries. He still sleeps with his Aunt every night. At five-years-old, he stills wears dipers. He never eats dinner (at least, not with us or a different meal altogether). Blake treats me like I am below him and my Grandmother reinforces this everytime I try to insert my dominance over him. Frankly, I am Blake's adult male influance and I have no dominance over him. Instead, I am seen as weak and submissive to my Grandmother. There is no end of wrong in that last sentence. On top of everything else, my Grandmother would rather kick me out than to insert any control over Blake or allow me to be seen as an authority figure. I think it comes down to my Grandmother only wanting her to be seen as the authority figure, which is odd because she has no authority over Blake. So everyone is Kung Fu Fighting. I'm trying to get Blake to respect me, my Grandmother is disrespecting me in front of him, and my Aunt is spoiling him. In the end, no one wins and Blakes loses. Well, see ya' later!
