Wife and I have been doing very well in therapy and I am starting to see some progress in DWs abilities to handle SD properly and not fall victim to her guilty parenting. I know it will be a long road but I feel like we are finally on the right path...of course some old habits die hard (yesterday she punished her and she wasn't allowed outside, only to have 10mins of badgering by SD change her mind to let her just on the front wrap around porch) but all in all truly amazing turn around by my wife. But I see SD is up to her usual sneaky, deceptive ways and has decided that she is going to pin this all on me and has been telling BD that all these changes here are my fault on her phone calls. Nothing said to me or my wife as of yet, but I suspect something is in the works...and I so do hope it is, because I've got a really nice surprise of my own when it goes down! Stay tuned!

That is great fedup. It will be a long, hard road. Make sure you praise dw when she follows through. She needs to see that you appreciate her effort and not only notice when she fails. What happens in your home is none of BD's business!
