[QUOTE="idohope, post: 514884, member: 7722"] No good advice just sympathy. My difficult child has run out (literally of course) of a dental appointment and an eye exam. The eye exam was just a vision test and we were sitting in the waiting room and the assistant came and said you can go back now and out she ran into the parking lot (pouring rain of course) and refused to come back in. Every annual physical exam visit is a battle and tantrums. She was required to get a shot this year. difficult children personal policy is no shots unless required by law. And school said she could not come back until she had the shot. Her extra curriculum activities were enough motivation there (no school no activities). (Like she would care that she was not allowed back in school haha) But it would also not have happened without an excellent nurse who was warned ahead of difficult child anxiety and told her she needed to control the fear and not let the fear control her. Sounds like your difficult child is at least acknowledging that she wants to comply on some level but cant and I think that gives you something to work with. Maybe try [h=3]What To Do When You Worry Too Much: A Kid's Guide to Overcoming Anxiety[/h](available on Amazon) seemed like a good book to me although my difficult child threw it across the room and refused to read it or work on it with me.
