[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 581821, member: 1550"] Suz, I'm so sorry. I have found, at least in my world, that men are good for the short term and fall apart in the long term for exactly what you expressed. They like to fix things and when they do all they can and it is still a problem, I think many men just get very frustrated and develop short fuses. And often it is Mom who has to pick up the shattered pieces long term and with compassion. Not that men don't have compassion...just that many think so very differently from us. I have nothing to offer other than empathy and the hope that things improve for your family and that husband is able to take it easy on difficult child and realize this is not his fault. And he needs to realize he has done all he can to help, but that there is a limit. Gentle hugs. [/QUOTE]
