Wretchedotis,
It has a lot to do with resiliancy. My ex has absolutely no resiliancy whatsoever. So in situations where things do not go his way, he lashes out the only way he can. Calling the police, calling the school administration, calling the CAS...anyone who might listen...or failing all this, leaves nasty messages on my voice mail.
Sometimes things do not go our way. The grown ups among us, suck it up and move on.
Others resort to childlike behavior but because they happen to be in adult bodies, the consequences can be serious.
Often these immature people do not not think of the long term consequences for themeslves or for any children involved.
They simply can not "cope" and manage the feelings of defeat that they might experience at the time and need to do whatever it takes to feel different or better.
