[QUOTE="MyFriendKita, post: 562858, member: 4888"] If I were to give one piece of advice to parents of younger difficult children, that would be it. I came to realize that too late, and I believe it has negatively affected my relationship with my son. I thought I was being a good parent by trying to force him to conform to what society expects, but in reality, I was telling him there really was no one on his side. He came out the other side of his teen years intact, so I guess it all worked out, but I wish I had been a little more understanding of who he is. [/QUOTE]
