[QUOTE="Christy, post: 175797, member: 225"] How frustrating! I'm sure you are at the end of your rope and have been there for some time. It is so hard when we become the enemy because we are trying to help. I have a tendency to joke around to keep things light as well as and using sarcasm. I learned not to do this with my difficult child because he is too literal and doesn't get it. I would caution you if you speak in a similar fashinon to your son, he may not get it and feel that it is antagonistic. I hope this latest psychiatric hospital visit proves helpful and he is able to pull it together before he turns eighteen. Have you contacted any local agencies that may be able to help him live independently since self-care seems to be an issue? Good Luck Christy [/QUOTE]
