[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 618413, member: 1550"] Selective memory of childhood!!! i know not all difficult children have THAT, although many of them do, but I have one who rewrote his childhood completely, inventing the absurd. It is very puzzling when it happens. So I would have to add to this good point: "Often lives with a distorted or plain untrue reality." Something that the other children in the family don't think happened or see as a good thing, the difficult child magically remembers or twists as a bad thing. I forgot too: Enjoys a good, long, dramatic pity party. That could fall under the umbrella of paranoia. They wring their hands and either really think they are helpless or know they are not but pretend to be helpless, so that somebody else will do "it" for them, whatever "it" is. [/QUOTE]
