[QUOTE="amy1129, post: 431591, member: 11795"] Hi we are seeing a social worker, but she hasnt met difficult child yet, she is meeting with us (me and husband) tomorrow and I think she wants to meet him next week. Basically our sessions have been blabbing her ear off with different instances, what we did, how we handled it, what he did. etc. I felt bad all husband and i did was ping pong stories off each other. She kinda explained what she thought was going on, a sensory transistioning integration issue, so she gave us some tips, we tried them, they failed. The 2nd session was just me, husband had a last minute meeting, and I am uncertain about how that went. I felt like social worker was kinda picking on my parenting, one issue we have is cereal, my kids alter who picks the ceral for the week. she was like, why cant you buy 2 boxes a week. I was like, cause thats my rule. I am having the hardest time grasping that we need to change rules and ways to accomodate difficult child. Its like he is winning and getting what he wants. I told her that if he has an "issue", no matter what it is, then maybe I can change my ways but until then I dont understand why we are doing these things. I am starting to wonder if a social worker is not the right person for us, but that is who my insurance company set us up with. I am happy you got to bring your difficult child to first apt, atleast she/he is able to see you difficult child from the beginning and start to offer some insight almost immediately. Did she/give you any tips or advice on how to handle difficult child in certain situations? Good luck!! Amy [/QUOTE]
