[QUOTE="Fran, post: 483751, member: 3"] "Maybe I didn't handle it the best but sometimes in the thick of a situation it is hard to always just walk away and let the consequences come later." I don't get the self evaluation that you were the problem. If anything, I would think that you and husband weren't [I]powerful[/I] enough. I know you know all the therapeutic stuff but what is the plan for when he is dangerous in the car? Just his distracting noise is not safe. The other side of the coin is that he won't/can't change and you have to make the best of it. Road trips with him in attendance should stop until he has better control. In the meantime, I know you know all this and you are just venting. Remember that you aren't the problem and you are learning every day what works and doesn't work for difficult child. Don't take the blame on your shoulders. [/QUOTE]
