[QUOTE="fuddleduddledee, post: 156658, member: 4966"] A few years back my son was playing with fire. One night as I was cooking dinner and my back was turned junior took a paper towel and put it on a burner that was on high. Flames started to shooting up from the paper towel and he then dropped the paper towel onto the floor. Panic stricken I ran for the fire extinguisher and got the fire put out. Next I turned my back to get the things necessary to clean up the mess and darling mister grabbed the fire extinguisher pulled down on the lever and..............poof I thought a I was part of the movie "THE FOG". Powder was everywhere, in the air, on the floor, finer than talcum powder, what a mess. I thought about it for a few days, and then I called the Fire Department and spoke to their Fire Safety Officer. She told me that they offered some classes for teenagers and I explained that difficult child was special needs and would not benefit from a group like that. She then set up our very own little class just for difficult child and me. We saw a movie about fire and how quickly a whole house could become engulfed, and how very few seconds you really do have to escapse, we also got to see the fire equipment and ambulances and we met the firemen working there. Our little field trip did seem to impact on difficult child and I haven't really had a problem since. Good luck with the matches. [/QUOTE]
