@SlickVic78 - I hope things work out or your mother and little bro too.
As for our kids, the problem is with the oldest boy (8) and the oldest girl (6) doing teams leaving their little brother (4) out. Last night we found notes that the 8 & 6 year old made to each other saying they didn't love their 4 year old brother. They gave the notes to him and we are thankful that he can't read yet. He thought the notes said they loved him and we are not going to tell him the truth. If the other kids do, Lord help them when/if I find out.
Yes last night I did change the BIOS to lockout my 8 year old son from the computer in his room. He woke me up today at 6am asking me why his computer was asking for a password.
Some people think we are too strong on our kids. They have never been allowed to change the TV channel or put in a different Xbox game. We make them say please and thank you all the time. I can't remember the last time I spanked them, but if needed I'm not ruling it out. Often taking away things they enjoy the most works the best in our house.
