[QUOTE="UpandDown, post: 706104, member: 19025"] yes my son would blame me for everything. He would go on and on with the most outrageous accusations. He was nasty and verbally abusive. And although logically I knew it was not true, I still questioned every decision we had made. I have been feeling extra down lately because although things are way better, my son is still a very difficult teen. This post from you reminded me of the progress we have made because his abusive rants seem to be a thing of the past. One HUGE thing that has helped our son(which i forgot to mention in my other post) is connecting with an excellent therapist. He has been in therapy for years but the past year he connected with a new one and she has helped him to identify why he is so angry and frustrated. And amazingly he realized it was not us. I can't remember if you said he was in therapy or not. And I remember you mentioned ODD. Any therapist that tried to convince my son that he was wrong in any way was one that he refused to work with. The latest one is one who really has just listened and allowed him to work through things without telling him what he was doing was wrong. I think for kids that have "ODD", this is huge. Hang in there. You really sound like you are on the ball and doing a great job in navigating through. I found such good advice here, I hope you do too. [/QUOTE]
