Argh! Mean, rude, passive aggressive and downright ornery

[QUOTE="buddy, post: 490948, member: 12886"] Terry, I swear we could switch kids sometimes and we wouldn't know it had happened until we looked at them! So frustrating that every single thing is the opposite. Q usually says the opposite but does the right thing while he is saying/denying things. Still it can wear me down. And the in my face stalking until I want to just jump out a window??? Yeah, I get that too. If Q misses the bus (but for him missing school is the end of the world so I have leverage) for behavior reasons, then he is not allowed to do anything other than school type activities at home until school hours are over. It has only happened twice in 6 years but it made such a huge impression he talks about it every week. ("oh wait, if I dont get ready then I will not be able to watch sports or play right mom? ok I better hurry... etc). Your son sounds like his ability is much higher than Q but some of the behaviors are so similar, the name calling over every single thing. Just letting you know I get how hard that is. Sad to say there are times I just am so used to it I barely hear it. Who lives like that? well, we do I guess. I know he didn't choose this disability. But doesn't mean I have to like it. [/QUOTE]
