[QUOTE="DDD, post: 39368, member: 35"] Are you keeping a daily journal yet? It is important so the Dr. can see the whole picture. If, for example, you tell him difficult child cussed at you because he wanted to see a bad movie...that means one thing. If, however, you tell him difficult child asked permission to go to a movie. He had earned the right to go to a movie. He was going with an approved friend. The movie was PG13. You and your husband decided that you did not approve of his choice, spoke to his friend to change the plan AND then...your difficult child got embarrassed and angry. Those are two entirely different scenarios. It's great you are reading the book. It will be beneficial if you keep a journal. Most of us, however, think you and your husband probably need to heed the advise of your Minister. You are not trying to help him grow up...you guys are trying to retard his development into an adult. Truly, I know it is based on love. on the other hand you seem to be too determined to micromanage. He needs respectful freedom. If he sees naked bodies or blood and guts, it is not going to erase all the years of training he has had. Really! DDD [/QUOTE]
