[QUOTE="1905, post: 418536, member: 2668"] Even if you don't always greet him with a smile at midnight, because you're asleep, a nice to dinner in the fridge for him to heat up will be just the same. You and difficult child are there together all day, you can actually spend time with her cooking it together. With her eating disorder it would be great practice, heck it could be math, reading, home Easy Child., art...She will also take her cues from you. Be careful never to talk about your marrige to her- I mean don't ever trash talk husband. Keep your boundaries, she's not a friend, she's your daughter and doesn't want or need to know things that are really for a friend your own age. She's only a child and doesn't care about how many things he pays for, I had a friend who's mom confided in her about private things, it caused my college-age friend so, so much stress. If your difficult child screams to get her way, DO NOT give in to her. She's learned the louder she screams, she will get her way. No, ignore her. I'm PROMISING you she will stop this if you stop giving in to her. I can tell you it will get worse before it gets better, she has to unlearn this negative attention seeking behavior. Coddling her in her bed is making things worse. I'm not in any way trying to be offensive or mean (((HUGS))). [/QUOTE]
