[QUOTE="Stella, post: 259391, member: 6837"] I could have titled this thread too! I think every difficult child mom has fantasised about running away at some stage!! I can totally see how some kids are just to out of control to be managed at home. I am trying my best to deal with it at home but if my difficult child does get worse when she gets into her teens I really don't think I would be able to handle it. if it means us becoming a family of different addresses well then so be it. We both have to remain safe but I will cross that bridge when and if I come to it. My difficult child curses all the time, calls me names (which i hate more than anything), slams doors, breaks things...when she gets into one of her rages (over practically nothing!) she is like a demon possessed!! It's so hurtful and exhausting. I'm dealing with a raging child, on my own (single mom) with absolutley no help from medications (she's too defiant to take them). Like the rest of you I try, try, try to keep calm but I'm human and sometimes I lose it too and resort to yelling and slamming doors and even name calling myself. When I do this I end up hating myself and I think over time it has damaged my self -esteem. I think "what type of mother can call her child names and shout at her like that" etc etc.... That coupled with the guilt of what traits you have passed on will really effect your self esteem. Guilt really is a wasted emotion though as it doesn't achieve anything. All you can do is your best in an extremely difficult situation. Also, try start each day with a clean state and try your best to forget about the names she called you, the stuff she has broken the day before. Carrying on animosity from one day to the next won't help anyone. It's difficult not to hold a grudge though when they've done on said something really nasty. It truly is a thankless task being a mom to a difficult child. Not many people know the true meaning of unconditional love, but we do, that's for sure. This is why we don't give up on them. [/QUOTE]
