[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 233079, member: 831"] Actually, that's a great comeback. "Don't I [I]wish[/I] it were bad parenting!" Nobody has ever said anything directly about my parenting the difficult children. I do know that when Daughter started therapy I was very clear with the therapist that she had better not make this an issue of my parenting. My mother in law once said to me when I happen to share about Daughter and everything we had been through: "Oh, you just expect your children to be perfect!" HUH??? :confused1: "Well, Mom, your right if that means my child doesn't nearly die at birth, get diagnosed with Leukemia at 13 months, and try to beat my face in when she's three". :angry: I have gotten a lot of "I don't know how you do it!" comments from various people.
