[QUOTE="rainyseason, post: 384071"] That would not be possible here. I couldnt 'detach' either. How could I? I'd be tripping on garbage etc.... Although I REALLY wish I could detach...But I can see how it would be frustrating. And how is it supposed to work? If I just decided to let my difficult child do whatever....omg! LOL Mine wouldn't be picking out outfits for school, because he just wouldn't go! Forget about bathing, school, cleaning up anything, he'd probably have the video games blaring all hours of the night and he'd be telling me where to 'go' the entire time. Is the idea for difficult child to suffer her own consequences? But even with that I dont get it. Because in the end, your suffering too, which for a difficult child is probably just 'awsome'! Our psychiatrist hasn't decided what to do on our end yet. We're still trying to figure out what is epilepsy related (postictal rages, irritation etc...), what my be pill related (crying spells, depression etc...) & whats blatent bad behavior (cussing at us, hitting, throwing stuff, throwing himself on the ground, because he knows I cant lift him & therefore cant force him into the car for school).....I just wish there was a pill that cured it ALL. And in the end I get a well mannered, well behaved child! If wishes were horses I guess... [/QUOTE]
