[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 181197, member: 3419"] We had out visit today. One of the main things we talked about was difficult child facing up to his gluten allergy. He does not want to cooperate at all. Yesterday he yelled at me, "It's my body and I can do what I want!" I replied, "Not on my watch." Dr. Riley suggested an allergist in NC who does shots specifically for T-cells, but difficult child immediately nixed that idea because he hates needles. The counselor at camp did an exercise where the kids would do something on their own and then report back to him, as a sign of responsibility. difficult child this a.m. came up with-the idea that I should drop him off at the mall with-my credit card and he would report back at a certain time. LOL. (Even the psychiatric had to hide a smile, although he was a bit alarmed at first.) We're trying to come up with-plans for difficult child that work, and that don't make him feel like a baby. I told him I'd love to give him more freedom, but he has to prove he can handle the little things first, and the dr agreed. I'm still wiped out. I just want to sleep for a wk. I've hardly had a moment to myself in the past wk., and that incl. easy child and husband. :whiteflag: I want to plan something fun with-difficult child, maybe Busch Gardens, but have to build up the emotional stamina.
