[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 374305, member: 1631"] FW-Glad you get so much positives in the way of affection-husband is mostly the recipient of that here (although lately I'm sometimes at the receiving end). Usually I get the do this, I can't do this, etc... demands (as does husband). Dash-Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone. The tucking in part is kind of nice (but again usually a husband thing). What really drives us crazy is when he is up at 4:00 a.m. to go to the bathroom and wakes us up to cover him up just so. ML-Yep-that's the part that is so frustrating. He is so capable of a lot of this and it is hard to know what is clinical and what isn't! Terry-Life coach is my nickname for the person who comes into the house to help difficult child learn more independent skills (unfortunately when we lose county services at the end of September we also lose the life coach). I would love to have this guy move in with us as he is great with difficult child! Gvcmom-It's nice your family is being more empathetic. I like how you handle things with explaining to difficult child why you are saying no and to do it themselves. We've been trying the same (with no results so far though). Shari-I think it's great you are having Wee do those things now! It will pay off (we have done some of that and difficult child is really good with the microwave and purchasing things on his own). CM-It's nice that your difficult child will make a PB & J. I think that is one area we have been not consistent enough in. difficult child will make something else to eat but I like the idea that it's only one other choice. Our difficult child gets so enraged over food that we haven't pushed it. Thank you everyone-your support means tons! [/QUOTE]
