melt down

[nats]

totally understandable triggers for a meltdown. if no one quite knows what to do and keeps cycling through, then the best you can hope for is some time alone to let things settle - when that's not respected.....

perhaps the toughest boundaries to set up and maintain are those with your children.. would agree with trying something like tweeter suggested, e.g. an account that can only be accessed at certain times etc - anything to ensure he can't just come storming to you for money for something ridiculous.
