[QUOTE="StressedM0mma, post: 503404, member: 13204"] Aww thanks Buddy. I am finding myself in a much more peaceful state, esp. with difficult child not being so volatile in the mornings. We still have a long long way to go, but we are willing to take baby steps to get there. I am very excited to start IOP family sessions. I think it will help us be better parents. We have really learned to pick our battles. I have learned that it is OK for some things to slide. difficult child will fall asleep early, and not get a shower that night. Before I would try to wake her up and we would end up screaming and in total difficult child meltdown mode. Now, I will ask once if she wants to shower, and she almost always says no. I remind myself it doesn't really matter. And, difficult child always makes sure she showers the next evening. This used to drive me crazy, now I look at it like she is asleep, and it is peaceful in the house. [/QUOTE]
