[QUOTE="HMBgal, post: 507077, member: 13260"] Just adding my support and extending my understanding of what you're going through. With my grandson, he is a cuddler, thank heavens, but the play behaviors, etc., I totally get what you're saying. The Explosive Child really helped us, and we are in the journey of eliminating things like sensory issues, etc. It is a journey, with two steps forward and one step back (and the reverse!), and it's hard. You've got another kid who seems pretty typical, so that should tell you it isn't you. No, people with typical kids with which typical interventions work won't understand, so quarantine yourself against the judgments, even well-meaning ones. I just keep Dr. Greene's statement "If they could do well, they would" in my head when I'm ready to lose my mind. Behaviors serve a purpose, even if it's a screaming, throwing, tantrumming, poop-smearing call for help. Bless her heart. You've taken a great first step! [/QUOTE]
