[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 638033, member: 18366"] OOH I really like turning his room into something you and your husband could enjoy. One thing I want to mention that I tried: paying for therapy. Well that was a dumb move. First of all she was old enough to get it herself and get it at a reduced rate. We paid for session after session because difficult child wouldn't even show up for appointments : ( The other thing I wanted to mention, when reading your past posts I read your thoughts about difficult children natural father. I think you really do have to be really awake to the fact that genetics are playing a big role here. With genetics it seems, that no matter how many times you try, the genetics are going to shine through. You two are both professionals and unfortunately you are "stuck" with a difficult child - but because of your careers, if you hold tight to what you know, you have much to gain for yourselves. Yes, excluding him from your life makes perfect sense because in the recent past he has proved himself to be both a thief and a liar. Hold on to that TRUTH! It sucks to be in this position for no fault of your own, but that is what this situation is! Just a thought about the holidays, me and my husband make "other" plans that make the 2 of us happy. Also I came to terms with the fact that I would rather be just the 2 of us than have a table surrounded by dysfunctional people, just so I felt some sort of semblance of a "holiday family gathering".
