[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 127082, member: 1233"] I really had witz's response in mind when I heard the suggestion. It also IS what my oldest told me, and was the LAST time I used that tactic. His counsellor was appalled - at MY reaction. My son was 8 or 9 at the time. Maybe it would work better in an older kid, but I don't know. We have had useful therapists, and at least this agency will feel you are "trying" to do things, so they may be helpful in getting a more intensive therapy. I do wonder what results they said the surgery would have on her behavior, esp as she grew up? I fully realize it was NOT something you did lightly, you did it because you HAD to HELP SAVE HER LIFE. I am quite sure. I just wonder what others who have had the surgery did in terms of behaviors as teens, etc...? Often therapists really have a hard time with our kids. They jsut can't crack them open and get the story like they can with adults. We have also heard so very many useless or harmful suggestions from therapists. But we have had them from psychiatrists and relatives too. [/QUOTE]
