[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 387321"] Thanks, everyone. Smallworld, difficult child is taking Celexa (40 mg) for his anxiety, and while that seems to have helped the problems that are anxiety driven, he needs to work on the behavioral issues that he has: complete disrespect towards me, bullying behavior towards his younger brother, lying, tantrums to get what he wants and to get his way. In my opnion, unless these issues are addressed they are never going to get better. I did get an e-mail from the therapist this morning. Basically it said that he was sorry that I felt the way that did, but in his opinion the session was very productive. I did not specifically state that I wanted to discuss certain behaviors at home so he was unaware that I felt something needed to be addresses. He stressed to me how much difficult child has improved in the time he has been working with him (he really has) and that I should be focusing on the positive, rather than seeking perfection. His e-mail was alot longer than that, but that was the general idea of it. I'm not even sure how to respond. I has just spend the first part of the session talking about what I had written into the book and explaining how difficult child's behavior is always worse over the weekend than it is during the week (usually because the weekend has much less structure to it than the week days do) and he didn't feel that needed to be addressed?
