[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 466706, member: 2315"] Kathy, Yes the manipulation is par for the course at this stage but the real problem here is that somhow you and your husband seem to think it is OK to take this relentless badgering from her because she is in treatment.. NOT!.. Just like any other time when she was at home or out on her own you have to make it very clear that this behavior is not acceptable. When My difficult child was in group homes husband and I read up on the attractions in the area and/or along the route. That way if difficult child acted up our trip would not be for naught. We would warn difficult child that we didn't come to see him to be badgered or guilted and that if it continued we would leave. He never forced our hand but we were prepared and a couple of times went to the attractions after our visit so that we would have some plesant down time. Even when they behave it is hard to see them struggling and in those surroundings so following up with something pleasant is a way to take care of you . -RM [/QUOTE]
