I have a dilemma...I just moved in with my roommate who is a 37 year old single mom of 3 children ages 17, 9 and 2. I have 1 son that is 7 and my parenting style is much different from hers because I make sure my son does not disrespect grown people. She doesn't believe in discipline and it shows. Then she is always out chasing after a man, drinking and partying so she leaves the 17 year old at home all the time with the younger ones. She tries to be friends with her kids instead of being a parent and lets them do things like watch violent movies,lets them listen to and chime in on adult converstations, lets them talk back to her etc. Then her 2 year old is always crying and throwing things. Yesterday he threw a metal hot wheels car and threw it at my son's head. My son doesn't really like to be around the 2 year old because he is so unruly and is always trying to hurt him. I told her about the incident and she just laughed it off and said well I didn't see him. I have to stay here a year because I am on the lease but this is driving me crazy. I don't want to cause friction in the house...any ideas?

  1. Explain to your roommate once again the problem. If she not concern about the situation then you should be. Talk to the little child to she why he is so angry. Explain to him that it not polite to hit others because hitting other cause them to hit back and it hurts.

    Good luck.
