[QUOTE="Giulia, post: 520744, member: 14306"] Add the Single Sided Deafness on the top of that, and you can imagine how explosive it can be !! Never tried drugs though, so no idea on what it does, and better not knowing. A drop of alcohol and I feel dizzy for at least 1/2 hour, so no thank you !! In these situations, what works best is the sentences I said to summarize. Also, be careful on the too vague, too long and/or unrealistic lists. The shorter, the better. It obligates you to carefully choose your battles, so you avoid power struggles all day long. Focus on the positive and ignore the negative is the very beginning for success. It won't solve all the problems, it won't heal ADHD, it won't cure Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). But it makes life at home much more pleasant, even if it won't solve all the issues. My message was a reply about "not abiding of rules at home". But it's also a good base to manage the labeled unbearable students, employees, patients etc etc.... Of course, we adapt it to the setting. However, it's a must basic knowledge to deal with difficult personalities. I also use it when I had to deal with administrative fights. On a funny short story, my dad remained speechless when I could manage his son while having a meltdown because refusing to clean up his toys and refusing to help. His wife knew and same, she is such into the power struggle that I can only laugh to imagine her speechless on how did I made him clean up his toy and set the table without fuss, without opposition, without shouting, without defiant behavior and so. He was I think five or six years old. It's nice to make a "perfect parent or what he thinks so", always criticising other parents for their parenting, become speechless. I am happy to have made her become speechless on my way of doing, that she criticised a lot until she saw the results on her son. [/QUOTE]
