[QUOTE="Andy, post: 191197, member: 5096"] Thank you for being such a caring friend. It is a heartbreak to watch friends fall away as difficult children's behaviors are displayed. I feel I lost two good friends last year as my son fell apart. I am sure these ladies were just scared and didn't know what to say - they didn't want to hurt me. You are true blessing to you friend. I hope we can help her through you! I would suggest that your friend take her daughter for some evaluations. Others will come along to give you the correct names and places of these evaluations. Her doctor can refer to psychiatric services. I don't know that we as parents always know that it is good to tell doctors about behaviors. This information would be used by the doctor to recommend evaluations. That first step is so scary - to enter a new world of terminology and possible medications - however, this new world will work and finding out what is wrong following treatment plans will help difficult child become healthier. Stay by her side - your friendship will give her the strength she needs to do the almost impossible things to face her daughter's problems. It will be a hard road but you can help her through it. We will be your cheerleaders. [/QUOTE]
