[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 332710, member: 1991"] Welcome, Dinaboa. You risk missing out on help by posting back here at the end of someone else's thread. How about you start your own thread and tell us more? Then we can help you specifically. Also, if you do a sig, it will always be there at the end of your posts so you won't have to keep explaining your family dynamics every time you post. It will save you time and energy. Keep it anonymous, for your own protection and your kids' protection. It also allows you to vent when you need to, about teachers, doctors, family - without any of them knowing it's you. In the meantime, read your way around this site. Go into the archives, into any forum you feel could be relevant. And one more thing - read up on "The Explosive Child" by Ross Greene. It's a book which has helped a lot of us with kids like this who are a challenge to parent. The parenting techniques you can adapt from this book can be applied to easy child kids as well as difficult children. Also, I found it easier to use than a lot of other methods. No charts, no diagrams, nothing you don't want or that won't fit in with your lifestyle. You use what works and leave the rest. For now, don't read too much into that smile - some kids smile when they're nervous, rather than it being a smile of triumph. The more you react to it, the more likely it is to happen, whatever the cause. Anyway, welcome. Marg [/QUOTE]
