[QUOTE="busywend, post: 54899, member: 391"] My difficult child just the other day refused to give up a stuffed SpongeBob doll that only has one arm. Sometimes it is just a comfort to them. Someday she will agree to throw it out. When she is ready she will do it. I would never throw it out on her as the meltdown that would ensue would not be worth it. I have had to talk her into a few things - that were no longer sanitary or safe and needed to go. It was very emotional for her. That BD teacher is off the mark. I am sure she is worried about difficult child and middle school, but taking it all away is not the answer. I agree maybe getting him to agree to leave it all at home. [/QUOTE]
