He has always been challenging. He is argumentative, very astute, articulate, critical of others etc. I don't think he means to be or even realises his behaviour is offensive. We argue daily. This morning he was complaining that I got him up at 10am...says he wants to lie in!!!! I say that we have lots to do, go to town, walk the dog, spend his Xmas money etc...all good things but he begins to argue about it so I comment that why do we always have to argue and he says it is easy to argue with someone like me...almost patronising and implying that he doesn't like me. When I challenge this he says he loves me and cries. It is hard to put into words how he behaves but he also comments and criticises the way people look. I mean for example if I sip coffee and it makes a noise then he will give me a disgusted look or if I lick my lips or anything he will look at me in a certain way, comment or look disgusted. It really is awful though doesn't sound it on here! He will choose to argue over anything and I have exploded at him on occasion and told him he is the most difficult child to look after. I cannot think of more stuff but there is loads and loads. Help please.
