[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 210129"] Sue, what appropriate timing of this thread. I've been so busy focusing on other things and trying to shove - not push - Wynter towards some independence that I lost sight. When you're in the midst of it, it's so hard to see it as anything as behavior that just makes you want to pull your hair out in frustration. When we try and try and try to pull something out of thin air that will get through to your child and time and time again it fails, it just leaves you spent and weary. And you just want it to stop. And then there's something that comes along and you sit back and you realize, for the umpteenth time, that my child is ill - mental illness, developmental, whatever. Our children compensate so well that it's easy to forget. It's not visible. It's not in your face every second. I'm pretty angry with myself right now, too, for the same reasons. I lost sight. I understand. [/QUOTE]
