[QUOTE="Andy, post: 172614, member: 5096"] I think it will work - just hard in those "modes". I really like what both you and Best I Can are implementing. And like Steely says, sometimes it has to be the smallest thing cause we can't find something bigger. They are very important techniques - ones I think you both knew about but maybe forgot in the frustration of raising a difficult child. I think they will start coming natural for you both soon. I would find it most challenging to use in the midst of a negative situation - It is so difficult to be positive when you are so frustrated you could scream. been there done that (well maybe not scream - well, maybe screamed but not in public.) I hope I didn't offend with my "Who were you referring to" statement. I do know that was not a funny moment. I just wanted to put a smile on your face. (smiling and laughing to reduce some stress) You really are doing a good job and your input and experiences and strategies are helping me and I bet others also. Now that you have reminded me to do so, I will also try to be more positive with difficult child even if it takes some doing to do so. [/QUOTE]
