[QUOTE="Jena, post: 216423, member: 4514"] Heather I have to agree. I also had to learn, it took me a few years to catch on to what i was doing and allowing her to get away with. My easy child i think has teetered on and off with bouts of depression. WE had tried therapists a few times, etc. Yet in the end I said this is your life and you have to be held accountable. I said to her there are days i don't want to, or i dont' feel up to it i even shared fact i too have had bouts of depression yet life doesn't stop and you need to keep up with it, even if baby steps are taken. Some types of steps have to be taken. I did something though that i think helped.She'd been talking about wanting to join dance class again, etc. and so i integrated that for her, it's once a week it's not much money a mos. yet it got her going and excited about something. It got her body going as well, her confidence build a bit and she started to get a little better in school. Just some more ramblings from me :) [/QUOTE]
