[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 672653, member: 11791"] The real problem is the second half of the statement. Once my kids (at a young age) began to show signs of being really challenging... I learned to NOT point fingers at the parents. In my experience, there is always a cause - but we don't always find out what it is. And most of the time, it's going to be come combination of genetics, development, experiences, and choices - and many of the experiences and choices are totally outside of a parent's control (think of all the hours spent at school etc.). School tried to pin problem behavior on our "unusual" home situation (not that unusual but a little bit different)... the real problem was developmental and mental health issues, but school didn't want to acknowledge that or they would look bad for not having been supportive earlier. Sure... CYA disease. I played the "developmental and mental health challenges" card many times, and it helped. [/QUOTE]
