[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 420561, member: 6546"] Marg-- Your examples are strikingly familiar! For instance, every day when difficult child arrives home from school - she simply comes in the door and goes to her bedroom or the kitchen or whatever...and for years, I have been reminding her that she should say "Hello!" or "I'm home!" or something like that. To this day, she doesn't "get" why she should say anything. And the "Love you"s ? husband, DS and myself are pretty free with the "I love you"s. But difficult child? Always gets suspicious or tense or irritated. If somebody says 'OK, see you guys later! I love you!' difficult child will respond with "But I'm not a guy!" so then we change it to "OK, I love you guys [I]AND[/I] difficult child" to which she will then respond "That's better!". It would be nice to get an "I love you, too" one of these days.... [/QUOTE]
