[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 210854, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]The tweedles expectations at home(s) have increased however, neither myself nor foster mum push to the point of meltdown. Knowing some of kt & wm's triggers have helped calm our family down. As maturity has set in for kt, we have upped the ante, so to speak. She's responsible for the list of chores on the dry erase board each day when she gets home. After that her time is her own except for helping with dinner & dinner clean up. However, if she's had a "bad" day at school, I back down. Not because I fear a meltdown but because by this time of the day the child is frayed & she's more inclined to go into a dissociative state. I still am working on getting kt out into that big bad world (wm's getting the same at group home) & that will continue. I have a good feeling just how far both of my children will go at this point.
