[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 463066"] Sigh, my family considers me a difficult child NOW. I guess it all depends on your definition of difficult child. When a child I had about 5 rages. Completely destroyed rooms. I was molested as a child and had some anger. I also did not attach to my dad, but he doesn't attach well to anyone. When a teen I ran away from home twice; didn't last long, just a few hours. I would also have some fights with my dad. He was abusive and I would push his buttons on purpose. I was also severely depressed and would go for days without talking to anyone. Funny thing is my family considers all that normal. Mom will bring up my past behavior (or worse my brother's past behavior) as proof that my kids are normal. It just takes the wind out her sails when I say "Mom, that is not normal." Now that I'm older they don't like me. I'm the one who will point out the family problems. I'm the only one in my family willing to call my brother a pedophile. I got my kids diagnosis while the rest of the family looked on in horror. (Now I'm helping my sister through the process. Ha I'm rubbing off.) I'm the one that told my other brothers fiance about the pedophile brother. I think they're scared of me. I take the face to face disagreement approach (I am polite) while they problem solve by back stabbing and laughing at you behind your back (but in front of husband or your kids). Yeah, I'm a bit bitter. [/QUOTE]
