[QUOTE="klmno, post: 428827, member: 3699"] Well, at least you can say you gave it a try. Our MST worker asked difficult child what he'd like or what did he wish was different about my parenting. difficult child thought for a while and said "well, it would be nice if she cooked things I really like more often for dinner". Now I didn't hold that aginst difficult child- he was 12yo and trying to come up with some answer and didn't say this like he was complaining. However, the behavior contract we were headed toward was that difficult child wouldn't break the law anymore if I'd cook what he wanted for dinner more often. Pfftt. That's the last day I was willing to meet with the guy- oh- he also showed up that visit saying he'd saved us some time by "going ahead and listing out our goals for us". Excuse me? Since when does the therapist decide what my and my son's goals are? I heard the "uncooperative parent", too. Turn that into "no, we tried but didn't see this going anywhere that could help our family- we asked ABC and didn't get an answer that we hadn't already tried". [/QUOTE]
