[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 383351"] For getting through the next week, how does your difficult child do with choices? I know that my difficult child does much better with things if we preface it as choice. Would you like to take your shower tonight or tomorrow morning? Would you like to wear the red shirt or the blue shirt? He still has to take a shower and get dressed, but he gets to choose when he does it and what he wears, and feels like he he has control over the situation. I know a week can seem like forever. I've had weeks like that, too. Try to hang in there. And I agree with what someone else posted. If difficult child has been on the same types of medications for three years and there has been no imporvement, then it's time to think about a different type of medication. Pam [/QUOTE]
