[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 625839, member: 17542"] The "I'm hungry" and the "I'm going to kill myself" are usually the last big manipulations that continue. My difficult child pitched both of those at me again this last go-round. They do it because it works. When it stops working, they will finally stop doing it. I suggest that we do not react or respond to the[I] I'm hungry [/I]one. We offer no response whatsoever. We call the police on the[I] I'm going to kill myself[/I] one. I'm talking to myself first here, obviously. We all should do what works for us. [/QUOTE]
