[QUOTE="Shari, post: 197648, member: 1848"] Thank you all. *** I could see a difference between then two, but then again, I'm sure I do things that I can do better to improve some of difficult child's behaviors, so I do tend to take comments like these to heart. Just needed some outside eyes to verify that we really were talking 2 different types of things here. *** Ironically, the person who made that comment has a twelve year old who still crawls in their lap. One without any sort of problems. *** Trinity - difficult child actually verbalizes this from time to time. He will say he wants mommy because mommy loves him and keeps him safe, and I guess I do tend to beleive what you're saying is right with him. difficult child had no connection to anyone until I started implementing Explosive Child concepts, and shortly thereafter, he attached himself to me - not so much in an emotional sense as in a survival sense. It always felt like he clung to me because I was the one that [I]he[/I] could understand. Its never been a "mommy's little boy" type of relationship with him. *** And Marg, I so relate! What the heck IS normal? I wouldn't know it if it smacked me upside the head anymore. *** Anyway, thank you all. [/QUOTE]
