[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 162101, member: 2287"] Good MOrning One of the biggest things we argued about was homework. My difficult child could not possibly sit and do homework after sitting and doing school work all day. I finally approached the school and had it written into his IEP that he has NO homework, or very, very little. This whole school year {which ends today....(great, he'll be under my nose ugh)} he's had NO written homework of any kind. All he had was to practice his trumpet and to read. My difficult child was so combative that our home life was a war zone to put it mildly. Our children MUST have a safe place to go to....and it needed to be our home. I won't begin to tell you it solved the problems...NOT. But now he has to argue about something other than homework. Every word that comes out of our difficult child's mouth is an argument. If I even say OKAY...you can go to the pool.....he'll argue about how long. It's never-ending. As others have told you, YOU are not alone. It really does help to get on here and let 'er rip! I'm sorry, it's not a fun life sometimes. [/QUOTE]
