[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 451618"] I really wish I didn't have experience with this. My ex doesn't think anything is wrong with difficult child 1. He thinks all difficult child 1's problems come from my bad parenting. And he has told difficult child 1 this. It has taken me, therapists, school teachers, psychiatrists, other docs years of explaining social situations and natural consequences to difficult child 1 for him to accept that he has a problem. Me handing out punishments for difficult child 1's behavior wasn't going to convince him. I had to point out the natural consequences, things that I had no control over, of his actions. For example, last school year difficult child 1 hit a kid in the face with a ball on purpose. The teacher decided to not do anything and excused it. I did not hand out a punishment for behavior done at school. I did point out the natural consequences of what would happen. The other kids wouldn't want to play with you if you hit them. In time difficult child 1 saw that what I said was true and didn't hit a kid in the face with a ball again. This is a long hard road. Good luck [/QUOTE]
