[QUOTE="Paul, post: 109633, member: 4378"] Wow - once again you folks have blown me out of the water. Me and my fiance are so glad we found this place! Secondly, right after this post, I am ordering 'The Explosive Child' and having it OVERNIGHTED. Let's see, lots of questions... "smallworld" - spanking is a total last resort and occurs few and far between - this is only when he goes completely out of control when logic, patience, and all other thoughtful methods have lost - and he is screaming, physically beating on himself, and roaring ands creaming out of control. Sometimes with all the fluster in the home of everyone doing their own thing, or early in the morning when we may still be asleep it is difficult to monitor him taking his medication. We question whether difficult child 2 has been taking them in school because we have not heard from the school nurse for refills for his mid-day dose - I am now thinking that since you mentioned it, we should place a call to the school and ask what is going on with that. We will both make sure he is taking his medication in person from now on and make sure he shows us that he is taking it. You do make a good point to ask him how he feels about taking his medication - however I am skeptical of this because when we ask him anything it's either "I don't know" or "Because I don't want to". So no clear answer is coming out even if we do tell him that his answer is unacceptable. The dropping of chores will have to be discussed further as we have built a family of responsibility, so taking those expectations out may isolate other family members. But hey, we can always just try it right? "DDD" - We do not know why there is such a long wait other than what we were told which was "There is a backlog". We will look into this further, and it's good to hear from you again! "wyntersgrace" - Thank you for your suggestions, we are willing to try anything at this point. I even saw some family activities at Cranium's website that helps turn daily activities into something family-oriented and fun. Alot of info to assimilate at 2:30 AM LOL. I think I have left some questions unanswered, I will get back to them tomorrow with a fresh noggin to be sure I am being as clear as possible. Talk to you all soon, oh, and Happy Holidays to All!
