[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 232118, member: 77"] I don't want to cause trouble here on the board, but this situation sounds very much like what we here call "doing a complete Riley" or something like that. Removing all possessions, taking the door away, etc. etc. Something I have never understood and never even dreamed of trying with my difficult child. I always put it down to my own personal lack of strength of character that I never even contemplated doing that, and always admired the parents who could do it. I suppose there must be a very thin dividing line between that and going over the limits. But then on the other hand -- I don't want to judge parents who are obviously desperate. I know that more than once I lost my temper with my difficult child when he was smaller, and I remember distinctly kicking him -- hard -- once when I completely went berserk with him. Just my two cents worth. Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
