[QUOTE="DDD, post: 607857, member: 35"] I also used role playing and although it didn't solve the problem I believe it was helpful. In my case it worked best when it included humor. Often it was multiple choice with some of the answers so bizarre that we both ended up rolling in laughter. The more correct answers were obvious and discusion followed. Perhaps that would be helpful. Since I have never lived in a different culture I have no way of knowing what the best approach may be in your case but I do know that my difficult child's could not handle hours of freedome with-o a problem arising. While the easy child's could easily be told "you can go play but just make sure I know where to find you" the difficult child's were not able to recognize when they were over stimulated or "crossing the line". As a result they were told "you can go play for an hour and then I expect you to come home for awhile". Of course, I stayed "aware" of where they were and enforced the checkin so I could better judge how it was going. Too much freedom for difficult child's, in my humble opinion, just naturally leads to problems. Good luck. DDD [/QUOTE]
