[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 184444, member: 3419"] Thank you all. BusyWend, I do think I am taking it too personally. I'm usually better at detaching but the last few days caught up with-me because difficult child was always around. I hate that I lost control at the dr's ofc. My only saving grace is that in all the yrs we've gone there, it's never happened b4 so the psychiatrist won't think I'm always like this. I just hate losing face. I typed my note here at 5:45 a.m., and then went back to bed until 11. I really needed it. Unfortunately, the dogs were not let out and guess what I stepped in? difficult child was a bit argumentative and pushy today. I told him we did not agree that he could not go to B's house, just other kids' houses (he nitpicks so well, I know he will be a lawyer!), then called husband to make sure, but he said it would probably be okay ... in the end I told difficult child I was not going to drive him so he got B's mom to pick him up! Well, this is a bit of a respite, anyway. difficult child followed me around all day, talking his head off (he's not normally that talkative but in the past cpl wks he's really started up) and I am exhausted. When C picked him up, difficult child gave me a huge bear hug and said thank you. It was hard not to cry. (I emailed her and told her to lock her bedrm door and put a password on her computer. She understood immediately.) What are my future hopes for him? Some day, I really think he will be a lawyer or lobbyist. He was a pit bull in another life. He never gives up. Then I think that a vo-tech might be okay, because he does not apply himself in school and it's so competetive. Then again he may go into sports and end up with-a scholarship. When he puts his mind to something, he's incredible. Definitely, he will live on his own. He is capable of it. And I want him to be happy. [/QUOTE]
