[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 384288, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]DF, difficult child is enjoying the chaos she creates. Even though you are in "detachment mode" she knows that she's creating a reaction from the family. I'm saying that you cannot accept the unacceptable. wm reveled in this type of acting out ~ he still does. Unfortunately, there will be no peace in the land while your difficult child is in this offensive cycle of acting out. So what's the next step? Trinity offers a great deal of good sense. This comes down to common sense. husband & I had to enacted many of the same things Trinity did for the tweedles. There is no way you have to accept the stench ~ even tho the pro's tell you not to make this a battle to me it was always a health issue (especially for young women). What is your difficult children currency? Is it that favorite top or pair of jeans? All of our little wonders have a currency ~ something that they will work for (unless they are completely unstable). The creation of chaos is statistically typical in adopted kids ~ there is a lack of sense of self; the only way they can control a situation is to create chaos & sit back & watch the reaction. That doesn't mean you have to stand for it ~ you get creative with your parenting. I can't come up with anything off the top of my head at the moment - if I do I'll get back to you.
