[QUOTE="Wonderful Family, post: 237747"] It can be discouraging to me too think to far into the future. As parents, we all have such dreams for our children when they are born. I've stopped thinking too far ahead. difficult child has become pretty good at putting himself into situations that he can handle and staying away from those he can't; but I can also see where this keeps him from stretching and growing at all becuase he avoids everything that is even remotely difficult. However, he ultimately has to be the one that is happy and if he is learning how (maybe), that's the best thing we can teach him. I think all we can do is put the necessary supports in place and set the ground rules; then it's up to difficult child. by the way - watched Hancock this afternoon; Will Smith learning how to say Good Job sounded like my difficult child.
