[QUOTE="Andy, post: 247670, member: 5096"] My difficult child would tell me that his body was telling him to do things he did not want to do. I hope the docs will take your difficult child's belly talk serious. He is struggling with his emotions and this is how he explains why he does mean things. He feels bad before he does them and that is a good thing because any steps that lead up to an inappropriate action can be used to help control the action. Your difficult child can be taught that when he starts to feel his belly wanting to talk, it is his job to turn it off and squash it so it doesn't lead him into trouble. The look in his eye is the same thing. You have learned to understand what that means. Any warning you have is a blessing. Now that you have figured out some of the signs, you need to put some coping skills into effect to gain control before the rage or mean action happens. Ask the staff at the hospital for the techniques they are teaching him so you can help remind him of them when he does come home. Do you also notice that because you do not have him at home 24/7 it is easier to be objectional about his behaviors? The doctor asked you how you felt about difficult child because you above anyone else will see the true changes. You will feel if he is changing for real or seem to be pretending. Like some here know their own children have learned the system so well they know how to behave to get discharged. You will know if your child is really learning or just playing the game. You are an expert on Elijah and your knowledge will help find an answer for him. I am glad you took the girls to Wendy's and a movie. It is so important to keep their needs met at this time also. I know that when difficult child was in the hospital, I was grateful that Diva was old enough to do a lot for herself and understand what was happening. It is hard to find the time and energy to do anything when your child is in the hospital. Good luck with the plans tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
