[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 281801, member: 6546"] I was not going to write about this, but I just can't seem to shake the feeling. Maybe I will feel better after I get it out.... As you know, difficult child is barely home from psychiatric hospital with no real supports in place other than our warning that if she breaks house rules we are calling police or having her returned to psychiatric hospital. But the warning signs are already there....picking on her brother again for entertainment....laughing at other's misfortunes....little insulting comments and put-downs here and there....talking about getting revenge on people....making long-distance phone calls to some boy who lives upstate....asking for maps....sneaking around the house in the middle of the night. I know that's it's only a matter of time before that next bad thing happens....and when it does, we will be prepared to take action.... but in the meanwhile, it's this [I]game[/I]--while she tries to see how much she can get away with before she gets caught.... It's draining the life out of me.... I know the "bad thing" is coming....but I don't know when, where, or what it will be. How can I cope...? :frowny: --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
