[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 283928, member: 6546"] Step-- I agree, GINORMOUS....even if difficult child doesn't really understand yet. Compassion-- What you describe about your daughter lacking empathy and being unable to enjoy a reciprocal relationship seems to fit. That's what I think I am seeing in my own difficult child. Susie-- You are exactly right! I feel as if we have all been bending over backwards to shower difficult child with attention, praise, love, and give positive reinforcement...and she will [I]still[/I] tell tdocs that her parents don't love her and her brother seems to get all the attention. Even ridiculous things will be interpreted as being "slighted". I've learned that if I serve difficult child three scoops of ice cream and give her brother only two, she will STILL claim that he got more. I will try that compliment via a third party trick.....perhaps that will have some impact? Flutterby, Marg, Jena.....thank you all so much for your ideas and support! --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
