[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 69733, member: 84"] I actually had a psychiatrist try to tell me I had difficult children because I was TOO strict. So I thought about what he said. Yep, I've always been a strict parent with firm rules, consistant dicipline, and high expectations. I always knew where my kids were and who they were with. And yes, I have 2 difficult children. But even those 2 difficult children with all their problems are better behaved than the majority of kids I've come into contact with throughout the years. So I laughed at him. He told me I needed to take an honest look at myself. I told him I needed a new psychiatrist. No one knows what it's like to live with difficult children unless you live with one. None of us are perfect. Our kids didn't come with instruction manuals. (if they did I've got two I could've refunded) Parenting is a learning process. As they learn and grow so do you. So don't be so hard on yourself. And adolecence with gfgdom is a whole other ballgame! [img]:rolleyes:[/img] [/QUOTE]
