[QUOTE="Fran, post: 122048, member: 3"] David, just a suggestion, don't overwhelm difficult child with stuff. Don't overindulge with his favorite foods and offers to buy new furniture. Keep your eye on the goal of difficult child changing behavior. This requires parents to change behavior too. He has to show improvement and gradually resume normal behavior. Don't turn into a Disney Dad. Just fun,indulge, fun. He is trying to change. It's only fair that you not use parental behaviors that didn't work in the past. Just my .02. I don't really know much of your story but I had a son in Residential Treatment Center (RTC) for 2 yrs and visits were very tightly controlled to not distract from the goal at hand. [/QUOTE]
