[QUOTE="DDD, post: 493141, member: 35"] Althought I don't have "answers" I thought I'd pipe in and offer one thought. I am a strong believer in consistency with difficult child's. It's terribly restrictive for parents but very reassuring for difficult child's as they don't have to cope with the unexpected and make choices "on the fly" so to speak. The reason I'm adding it to this thread is that in my parenting years I found experimenting with different methods confused the heck out of difficult child. If you change your structure I'd suggest alot of forethought and a gradual switch over while you see what works and what doesn't. Like many parents I would read of a "good idea" and give it a try but honestly I often added to difficult child problems by experimenting too often. Of course I never was able to change a difficult child to a easy child, lol, but analyzing my behaviors, difficult child behaviors and our schedule came first...then occasionally a supplemental plan was introduced. Some worked at my house and some did not but absolutely "slow and easy" was the best way to try to improve our home life. Hugs DDD [/QUOTE]
