[QUOTE="Steely, post: 495628, member: 3301"] Well --- all I can say is welcome to the true world of warrior moms. :sick: *We fall flat on our faces, and do things only difficult children would do, because we live with them 24/7 and at some point their energy becomes ours. * We have so much PTSD over the phone ringing that we change the ring tone on our phones over and over to try and find a more melodic tone that will hopefully not send that jolt of adrenaline through our bodies when it rings (never works). *We are forever fed up with school administration - and we come to loathe the sight of a school, school bus, or school bells - let alone home room moms, and cupcakes. *Despite trying to proactively solve every single difficult child issue before they come up - we fail. Our punishment - the repercussions from their meltdown. *We can't even lie down for a nap, because the phone might ring, which causes massive anxiety in our chests, and makes us feels as if we can't breathe, and that we could die at any moment - and then where would difficult child be? *Every single other problem that crops up that is not difficult child related seems insurmountable. I could go on and on -- You know I am writing an entire novel about this - (LOL). There was a post awhile back I think on PE about how our difficult children changed our lives. You should try and find it if you can - because - the reality is that we do suffer both physical and mental consequences from having these kids. That cannot be changed. And it stinks - but it is what it is. It helps to have our board, knowing others are going through the same thing, maybe more - and that you are loved and supported. HUGS. [/QUOTE]
