I cant whip him, the dad or the boy, that would just add fire to the gasoline......I can only reason with him so much, but his dad just shoots whatever I tell him down......
Suggestions? This is really making my homelife difficult.......thanks

Where does the kid live mostly? If he lives with you and your wife, and you and your wife are the sole providers than by all means you have EVERY right to lay the law down. My wife and I have been together six years, and when we first got together, I was apprehensive about things, but she told me, " your house, your rules ". And buddy, I promise that her two know better than to disrespect anyone in my house.
