[QUOTE="Burndoubt, post: 280966, member: 7493"] Hmnn... must've been a typo on my part somewhere. *frowning* Sorry 'bout that! I think I'd lost my typing skills/train of thought when I was talking about husband asking difficult child what the family had lost (in the fire/throughout the last 8 months due to difficult child's behaviors). *sighs* So far, nothing else has really happened. husband is getting his passport arranged to leave, most likely during the kids' birthday month. Not planned, but it's the only job he's been offered that'll pay what we need. :( Plus, it's one month here (he starts in July), then a month away on a DOD contract, and back again, for about 6-8 months. husband & I have an appointment. with-difficult child's counselor on Thursday. I wanted to throw something at him (the counselor) the other day! difficult child'd broken another rule about being available on time for his appointments and wandered off, missing for 20 minutes. When asked by the counselor if he should've handled things another way, difficult child replied that he'd done just fine and wouldn't change a thing. I think folks in the waiting room heard me grind my teeth. The counselor informed me that I just needed to keep constant and remind him over & over of every little rule. Funny, his method has shown squat for results on so many points. difficult child feels no remorse for his actions in the last 8 months. If EIGHT MONTHS of reminding him haven't worked, what will?!? I've about had it with this guy! *breathes deeply* Sorry again... the closer husband's leaving time approaches, the more angry and stressed and scared I'm becoming. Okay, other than the appointment. with husband, the counselor & I to talk about difficult child's Residential Treatment Center (RTC) & continuing treatment, husband & I have a counseling appointment with-our old counselor (finally one husband respects!) on the 15th. I'm praying that she can get thru to him that you DON'T force a person with PTSD to live as a single parent (but with no parental rights) with a child who's violated her daughter, set fire to the garage & has ODD/CD. I keep praying she sees this, and can find a way to explain it so he can actually SEE that's what he's doing. [/QUOTE]
