[QUOTE="Heartsick, post: 275163, member: 7400"] I am back...I mentally checked out for a few days. I am to the point were I wonder where all the tears come from. They seem to come at the worst time EVER. We had a house full of company this weekend. difficult child was in prime form, punching a window, screaming, kicking...yeah it was beautiful. The scary thing is I found a pencil sharpener broken with the blade out. I know she is only 10 almost 11, but I fear her at times as much as the criminals I deal with. Her eyes turn strange and black, I feel the hatred radiat off of her. I have a coworker who has a child with multiple mental health issues, I finally talked to her today about difficult child. That was hard. I also made another app with her pediatrician, to get a referal for the neuro evaluation. I am processing all of your information. The last comment was about difficult child getting angrier and angrier. That was so right on, I think it is a serious butting of the heads, because I want control of the situation. She flips in an instant when we are not doing something for her, or if I say no to something. {{Dazedandconfused}} your lying story sounded like a typical conversation in my home, only much quieter. {{Marguerite}} Your words of wisdom are pearls of sanity for me...they are also the ones to most invoke my tears. You are right, difficult child's self esteem is at an all time low, and I am sure I am not helping. I have said some awful things to her trying to make her see that her actions are grossly different than kids her age. I mean how many almost 11 year olds pee in their rooms? I have been thinking about her lying issue, and how she is bad at it. Everything in society says that lying is bad, you must be punished. It makes me cringe to think about embracing difficult child when she is openly disobidient, or lies. I know this is not about me, but about helping difficult child. A common suggestion is that I get out, and do something for me. Get out and do something with her. I like to train for marathons/triathlons, and weight lift. I get up 2 hours early to train. difficult child likes to run with me, and I do try to allow her to go on the weekends. Problem is that is my only time where I do not have to hear anyone talking to me, I am responsible for myself. Next weekend I am going to women of Faith conference.
