[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 186073, member: 3419"] Hi gcv, glad you survived! Did you sit in the front row at the killer whale show so you could get splashed? been there done that, especially with-the lines. I had difficult child in a very long line once, waiting for tickets at Busch Gardens. My dad was in town. When we were kids, his nickname was The Colonel. He's got Alzheimer's now, but some things never fade from memory, like how to be A Colonel (he never really was one but he could have been!). He shouted at difficult child to behave, grabbed him by the arm and nearly twisted it off at the shoulder, and difficult child behaved after that. (At least, he didn't sit on the dividing lines between the rows and he quit hanging on me.) Didn't make for a bonding relationship but it was a relief for me, because I was trying to keep it together just like you and your husband did. :) I'm interested in your son's stimulus seeking behviors because they sound so similar to my son's. Your son has a lot more DXs than mine, but is it something neurological? At any rate, I hope you've had a chance to cool off from the heat and recover from the stressful day. [/QUOTE]
