[QUOTE="4sumrzn, post: 131636, member: 4133"] There have been many times difficult child has started saying words that I'm not sure where they came from. Was it someone at school, on the bus, kids I babysit for, her brother (or his friends) or just someone talking a normal conversation???? I'm not sure. But, this one since last week is getting to me:crying:. First of all, she normally yells these words when something isn't quite right for her.....she's being redirected, asked to stop, being told "it's too cold to wear your swim suit to school in the snow", ya know....just not her idea of what is suppose to be going on. Anyway, she just went off because I walked into the kitchen & she was trying to help do the dishes (her idea of that is.....empty out the cabinets of clean ones, fill the sink & have a water party!). I was in the potty by the way & cut everything off when I heard the water running:whiteflag:. I was as nice as I could be & tried VERY hard to say the right things to avoid a meltdown. I didn't get a meltdown (I'll pat myself on the back for that one), but got the running off....screaming & yelling...the name calling and here came the name......[SIZE=3]RETARD!!!!![/SIZE] Ya know, it is so very possible that my difficult child is retarted. I get that. I understand that children can be cruel. BUT, my gosh....this child can't even hold a conversation that makes sense to most people. She's hearing these words & for some reason holds on to them. WHY? She can't retain words that are educational to her, but these words she can? AND, these words are what she is yelling out when she's "not happy" (not that I even believe the child knows what emotions are & how to display them properly). Once again, I can never sit here & type my actual thoughts as they are coming to me......I have things coming at me from every angle all of the time (kids, dogs, phone, door, toilet over flowing....) & it sometimes takes me FOREVER to even get it out, let alone....know if it makes any sense or is spelled right. Sorry. Thanks for letting me vent. I'm glad I have somewhere to do that [/QUOTE]
