Dad reports:
I made a mistake. Tommy spent most of the evening yelling whenever spoken to. I finally got Tommy in the tub and he lounged in the bathtub for over an hour then started screaming at his brother to turn down the radio (an unnecessary request). I had previously warned him that if he showed no sign of scrubbing I would bathe him myself. He started screaming at me when I entered to encourage him so I put shampoo on him and soaped him then he turned on the hysterics so I bathed him and in the end he forced himself to throwup. Now he is in the bathroom howling for his mother.
The puppy became so hysterical that she had to be removed from the house. The 8 year old and two year old are in tears. Cathy goes into contractions whenever he does this. I fear for the health of the unborn and the other children that something drastic may have to be done with Tommy soon.
