[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 195833, member: 1233"] Welcome! I have heard the "not my fault" song for years too. It is pretty common in our kids. Currently my difficult child is doing well ONLY because his Gpa (my dad) worked the living tar out of him in the yard. Every time Wiz went into a rage he ended up spending hours and hours working in the yard with my dad. He lives with my dad because he was beating me and I refused to have it. I called the Sheriff and had him removed. While we were waiting (over a month) for the officer to do the paper work, Gpa decided that since he had just retired he wanted to try to reach Wiz. Gpa retired from teaching the roughest kids his school district had, so he was used to kids who didn't behave. Gpa was also furious that ANYONE would hit "his little girl" as he put it. Esp since I have dealt with fibromyalgia and arthritis since I was a young teen. Anyway, my difficult child is doing well now, and just a few years ago I thought prison was the only thing in his future. That or an early grave. I am not joking. You are not alone, not by a long shot on this board. I strongly recommend reading The Explosive Child by Ross Greene AND Love and Logic Parenting by Fay and Kline. You can check out L&L at [URL="http://www.loveandlogic.com"]www.loveandlogic.com[/URL] . I have even been to one of their seminars, and it was amazingly helpful. Even if your child has a disorder (Mine has aspergers) you can still get help from these sources. I even read/listened to the stuff on the L&L site for teachers.
