[QUOTE="dashcat, post: 414245, member: 9175"] Serenity prayer, my friend. You did your best. Most likely, you did more and better than most. Your difficult child has a mind of her own and she has the free will to choose what to do with that mind. Believe me, I struggle with this all the time. Our kids rarely respond to conventional punishment and consequences. Thinking back and wondering if taking another course of action would have made a difference is not going to do you - or her- any good. In your heart of hearts you know that a different approach probably would have delivered very little in the way of different results. Be at peace with yourself. You are a good mom, a good mom who did and continues to do her best. Dash [/QUOTE]
