[QUOTE="TiredSoul, post: 378987, member: 3930"] (snipped above by me) It is sooooooo hard when everyone around you thinks it's your fault. It is NOT your fault. The people on this board understand that. I used to feel the same way. My friends still don't get it. Sometimes my husband doesn't get it. My Mom does for the most part, so I get a lot of support from her. My in-laws don't get it. It's tough! Just hang in there and keep doing what you're doing to try to get help. The part you wrote about your child having to always push the cart at the grocery store - made me remember what was helping a little for us when my difficult child was in Kindergarten. The resource people at his school would pull him out of class at times to do "heavy work". They would have him do jobs where he was pushing, pulling, moving things. It helped get his aggression and energy out. For us, sports (non-competitive) help tremendously. The busier we can keep him physically, the better his behavior is. I also like what you said about putting his toys in time out. That is very creative. Our difficult child would never stay in time out either. I always think of shows like Dr. Phil or Super Nanny and always imagine them saying you have to keep putting them back in TO over and over and over and over. Ya know what - that would NEVER work for us. He is relentless and will NEVER give up - ever. It is exhausting to say the least. [/QUOTE]
