[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 44144, member: 3388"] I'm reading this thread carefully as I know it won't be too long before I have to go through this with difficult child 1. I think I'll need a stiff[img]:smile:[/img]drink first!!! Anyway, your "adventure" sounds mostly positive to me. Your difficult child knows how to be courteous (SP?) in public - a definite PLUS!!! I have to admit that I laughed when you said he was tired from nerves after only going to a few places!!! I also know what you mean about living in a small town without many jobs available for teens. This is going to be difficult for difficult child 1 too. I did notice the famous "difficult child attitude" when you said his opportunities are limited because of what he wants to do. He would probably change his tune pretty quickly if it meant not eating or taking a job even if it isn't what he had in mind. I already see this being a BIG issue with difficult child 1!!! Well, at least he is sort of trying... I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he finds a JOB soon!!! Please keep us updated. And, don't forget to take lots of "ME" time. This should help!!!
