[QUOTE="pinevalley, post: 96623, member: 3710"] Marguerite, I liked the analogy about a child and father learning to swim, and how it is hard to expect all kids to reach the same milestones at the same time. My husband has no patience for kids who need more help than others, and it is really hard for him to change his behavior. We don't have any other kids at home either, so my husband is not really around any other kids except difficult child. I have talked to lots of other parents, especially adoptive parents, and the behavior of our difficult child is not so surprising to me. However I am going to reread The Explosive Child and summarize it for my husband. I don't know much about the Love and Logic books, but I will check that out too. thanks, [/QUOTE]
