[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 549421, member: 11791"] Just some ramblings... - take care of yourself. Even if it's just a bubble-bath after the kids are sleeping, you do need something relaxing and special for yourself. - Is there anyone who can take over difficult child for an hour a day, or several hours on a weekend, and leave you with just the younger boy? That way, there is a scheduled time that is dedicated to him, and he has something to look forward to. Our almost-easy child found this worked for her... she understood that difficult child needed most of my resources, but needed to know that I was still there for her - even if it was "scheduled" rather than whenever she wanted, she still got the support she needed. - are you on ADD medications yourself? If not, can you? It made a huge difference for me. [/QUOTE]
