[QUOTE="JKF, post: 483934, member: 12470"] Good luck tomorrow Step. In my experience family sessions are a huge waste of time but I guess that depends on each individual family. In my case, difficult child doesn't like to talk about feelings, says everything is fine, yet continues to harbor a deep resentment against me, his bio dad, younger brother, etc. That's one part of the problem. He refuses to acknowledge his anger until he gets angry and then all bets are off. Like I said to JJJ, I'm definitely not backing down! I will be available but at times that are appropriate for me . I work but am willing to take time off every other week to go to sessions. During the DAY! However, at night I have my younger son to deal with and I refuse to interrupt his schedule/routine and drag him out for an evening family session which would take an hour PLUS the two hour round trip travel time! My husband works non stop, gets up at 4 am, works until 9 pm most nights and is not available to watch 10 y/o while I go to a family session that's convenient for everyone but me. NOT HAPPENING!!!
