[QUOTE="klmno, post: 39913, member: 3699"] I agree with the others- if you can find something that is an outlet for your difficult child- really enjoyable - great! I recall when my difficult child was about that age and I asked the pediatrician why he hated me because he came home evry day wanted to yell and scream, the dr said it doesn't mean he hates me, it means he's been holding stuff in all day and is finally around someone who he feels he can "let it out" with, without being punished- he said at worst, it meant my unconditional love was being taken for granted. after that, i started just letting him snack, hang loose, and made sure i tried to ask about any thing he wanted to talk about or get off his chest. this seemed to help. i wish i could have found an outlet that was a stress-reliever for him- like sports- that he liked.
