[QUOTE="totoro, post: 39924, member: 3155"] You have to let what the hag said roll off of you!!! No one knows what you have gone through! She is speaking out of her rear... maybe from what she has dealt with or seen or because that is what kind of Mom she is!!! No one will evet appreciate what you are trying to do for your difficult child. I am sorry the system stinks and nothing comes easy... One thing I thought of is that the word "NO" is a trigger for most BiPolar (BP) kids... being told they can't do something, can trigger an extreme rage... we thought our difficult child was starting to act like a little demon until we realized this is a huge trigger for her! Not that it makes it OK, but now we have to adapt how we say "no' and lead up to it... walking on eggshells. I don't know if he is BiPolar (BP) or if there is a family histroy... just a thought. For an outsider it can look like they are just being brats or trying to get there way. When in reality it is the inabilty to change gears midstream, they have already made up their minds to do something, then they are told no... it is sometimes impossible for a child with a mood disorder who hasn't been taught the skills or given the right tools, to be able to just go with the flow.
