[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 631095, member: 17461"] I'm sorry this is happening Dist, but you are doing the right thing. It helps me to remind myself that there is no situation involving a difficult child child that is ever going to feel alright or even normal. You are parenting correctly in my opinion. Your difficult child is being uber manipulative and she doesn't like anyone standing up to her. But that is what you have to do. It isn't pleasant, but you knew this was a possibility going in. Your daughter is worth every sacrifice you make for her...but she doesn't get to abuse or stifle or threaten you to get her way. Hold to your principles. You cannot control husband. You cannot control what your family will or won't do. You cannot control anyone but you. This is a very hard time, so be very sure to take special care of yourself through it. It is so important that we make extra efforts to protect and cherish ourselves when our difficult child kids are acting out. And, like we always say...at least we have one another and this site. :O) Cedar [/QUOTE]
