[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 540791, member: 14557"] Parenting a child with certain disorders is not always easy. It is not even easy to parent a difficult child who doesn't have any label (my difficult child only got his first real label (PTSD) last week, just few weeks before he turns 19.) Good that comes out of this type of place is, that it is a place there you can talk about your child in straight way. In real life you often had to consider protecting your child's privacy and reputation. Being able to vent here does help when dealing with the child. It also helps, that one has child's label in the signature, because many disorders have certain characteristics and other can more easily make suggestions or give advices that has worked with kids with similar diagnosis and in similar situation. It also helps others to remember other board members situations, which makes discussion more relevant. And it does also make it easier to share enjoyment of our kids triumphs, when others can remember also the struggles. Sometimes it is also very useful to separate a behaviour and a child. Often undesirable behaviours are things our kids can not help and it is good to keep a separation between unacceptable behaviour and a kid you love in mind. Our kids are whole people, but those disorders are a part of them. Sometimes very big part. [/QUOTE]
