[QUOTE="SRL, post: 51504, member: 701"] Parenting a difficult child isn't for the faint hearted and I've been amazed at what knowledge and skill is accumulated in the process. One day I was coming out of the grocery store and saw a mom carrying a big party cookie in one arm and dealing with a near tantruming preschooler in the other and I figured I could lick that kid with one arm tied behind my back. ;-) I think the physical stuff was by far the hardest for me. I was able to keep my cool through most any verbal stuff but staying calm and making good parent decisions in the midst of a physical situation is tough...and doubly so in public. My difficult child had made so much progress since those days that I've often thought to put "ex" in front of difficult child but I've decided not to be hasty with that since hormones are still in his future.
