[QUOTE="Fran, post: 294199, member: 3"] miche, Life is much more easy, peaceful, loving without them. Unfortunately, that is not the deal. You get what you get and it's up to you to play the cards you are dealt. Look at how far you have come in parenting her. You have survived 6 yrs and can still organize a birthday party for her. Keep trying the suggestions given to you. Being consistently calm, firm, and intolerant to her yelling will reap results eventually. You are at a crossroads it seems. Are you getting help for you? You are a survivor/victim of continued verbal battering. Make no doubt about that issue. It wears you down and makes you want to give up. This is the part you have a choice in. What do you want to do? How do you get to the goal you set? Any chance of the doctor making some suggestions? Any chance medications may come into the picture? I know you are down and feel like surrendering but your other two children need you as does your husband. They see your value and your strength. Can you join a group of parents with difficult children? There is strength in numbers. How she is today isn't necessarily how she will be in 6 months. Give your self a break from her. Can you do any of these suggestions? You want to recharge your batteries. The only way to do that is find some way to get respite from difficult child. Can she go to grandmothers, aunt, daycare or camp? It will make a big difference to you if you have a break. [/QUOTE]
