[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 214605, member: 1233"] Hi and Welcome. I am so sorry you need us, but I am glad you found us. I don't know all you have gone through, but often there is more going on. When my difficult child (Wiz) was 12 we were POSITIVE we were headed for the CD diagnosis and a child who would spend his life in prison. He was so very scary and violent - he even tried many times to kill my daughter (who has had MUCH therapy to deal with this). It has taken a LOT of work, but right now my son is 17 (turned 17 on 11/21!) and is a senior in high school. He is taking a vocational program 1/2 the day to be a machinist (like his great grandpa, uncles and grandpa) and he is planning to attend the vocational program full time next year (and got the state to pay for it!). Then he plans to work as a machinist to pay for college. He is a loving brother and son, a caring cousin to his 5yo niece, and all around a really nice kid. And I didn't think I would EVER get to write those words when he was 12-15. So don't lose hope, answer the questions others have asked when you can, and stick around. There is a TON of knowledge and support here and we really want to get to know you. [/QUOTE]
