[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 485095, member: 1550"] Hmmmmmmmmm. I was a major difficult child. I have no idea how yours will take it. I probably would have seen it as more criticism and when I was told I could have a great life, I probably would have thought, "Oh, yeah, right...haha." I was very distant from adults at t hat time in my life and overly sensitive to criticism and I thought EVERYTHING was criticism. The only thing that would have reached me would have been a letter about how much I was loved because I didn't think anyone loved me. THAT would have made me feel guilty and maybe even prompt a hug from me because I felt so totally useless. But your difficult child is not me. Time will tell if this was helpful. Teenagers are very complicated and difficult and often even typical teen are self-centered. [/QUOTE]
