[QUOTE="StressedM0mma, post: 484014, member: 13204"] Thank you IC. It is hard to see outside the box when you feel trapped inside of it. I am trying very hard to let go of things. For some reason it is much harder to do with difficult child than it is/was with easy child. Right now I feel like I am treating her like a baby. "Okay sweetie it is time to get up..." Then after 45 minutes of trying to pry her out of bed, I just get so frustrated I often times lose it on her. And, I know that does not help, it just fuels her resistance. That is why I am wondering if there could be some ODD going on as well. I guess we will see when we go to the therapist on the 12th. I think it is time for me to seek out a therapist for myself. I am doing no one any favors by acting this way. I obviously need some new coping skills. I woke her up earlier to see if she wanted to shower this morning ans she decided not to. So I just said ok. I will be back up in 30 minutes to make sure you are up. Like all of you said, if she wants to go stinky, then by all means go ahead. I am going to pray today goes better than yesterday. [/QUOTE]
