[QUOTE="keista, post: 473928, member: 11965"] Hello and welcome. I haven't had the exact situation, but come close. Had a psychiatrist say that DD1 was 'playing' me. Just this week the therapist said "Well make her do the stress management exercises." Uhm, how exactly do I do that? "Tell her she has to do them before she gets any privileges - TV, computer, friends." Uh, and then what do I do after she's done nothing but sit in a chair for a month? Besides, i thought we were supposed to be working on reducing stress and conflict. Anyway, if it was your first visit with the social worker, it makes sense, and it is a logical first step. Many "explosive kid issues" can be tempered by changing parenting. This in no way means that you are doing anything wrong. If you had a "normal" kid, you'd probably be golden, but since your child has "issues", some changes are in order. Unfortunately, it's hard to know what changes are in order unless you know what is going on with your child. Welcome again. :notalone: [/QUOTE]
