Thank you for the response. Yes my husband is the boys father's, I do talk to him about how I feel quite a lot. What happens is he "has a word" with the boys or we both come up with a plan, but it never lasts.
He has this idea that all 3nof us (Me, him and the boys mother) have to agree on disapline before we proceed, to keep things consistent in both home. Which means nothing lasts as anything I suggest gets shut down by the ex wife.

It's infuriating and currently unworkable their mother is far too lenient and relaxed.
