[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 658286, member: 17269"] that is the thing that is confusing for us all. We assume that they will "see the light" which is a normal part of growing up...for toddlers and often for adolescents it is all about their feelings...it seems to us to be a natural part of growing up to transition away from that. We did it. Other kids do it. It seems a core part of Difficult Child dom to not make that transition. Very hard thing to see, Copa, but very true. I hope and believe that the pain this realization brings you has the benefit of helping you move along your way. There is nobody to make this speech to anymore. He is not deaf (this is my tattoo (fantasy...although I have real tattoos...but I'm not telling). He has heard you. He doesn't believe you/value this/care/cannot. Saying it again won't help. I know you know. I am repeating it to bolster you and all of us. Echo [/QUOTE]
