[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 68159, member: 1991"] G'day, all. It's late here - I nearly let husband shut down the computer an hour ago, but I did want to say good morning before I had to say good night, if you know what I mean! Another fight with difficult child 3 tonight - he gets tired, he talks all through a TV program we're trying to watch and eventually husband shouts at him. difficult child 3 then gets all offended so NOTHING is learned. I've found if I keep correcting him but stop short of shouting at him, he does slowly get the message, at least a little. He is far more likely to realise he's doing the wrong thing. Once he feels victimised, we've lost. Oh, well. As Scarlett O'Hara said, "Tomorrow is another day." I'm still a long way from well and a lot of people are pressuring me to do stuff for them. I'm going to begin ringing people tomorrow and telling them to back off, find someone else. One friend wants me to take minutes of a meeting on Saturday - I had already said I didn't feel I should be there, even before my health added another reason. It's just that my substitute can't go either. So I'm going to strongly suggest the meeting be postponed, rather than have the hassle. It's only routine anyway. Wish me luck. Marg [/QUOTE]
