[QUOTE="SRL, post: 431184, member: 701"] Sorry it was such a rough evening. You won't read too many stories of instant transformations into wonderkids here. Actually if you're reading the other forums you probably won't read too many of the success stories either, because those parents tend to fade away as their need for support and information gradually decreases. If you follow the threads what you will find are a lot of parents whose kids are making progress, but not usually in a linear fashion. Occasionally kids will make a leap in handling their challenges, but more often than not they slide into it and we just wake up and notice it one day. Sometimes they conquer one issue, only to have another take its place. Often issues ebb and flow, coming and going with the stressors in their lives, maybe looking the same each time, or may be slightly different. In time you get used to it and notice it less, but when they're so young and you're seeking answers, you're watching everything so closely that you see every little thing. [/QUOTE]
