[QUOTE="On_Call, post: 56644, member: 3211"] I thought of something last night while I laid there unable to go to sleep! (GRR!) For the most part, anyone who we have told anything about difficult child has been supportive. difficult child's karate Master has been amazing - as has his violin/orchestra teacher. They have gone out of their way - above and beyond - to acccomodate difficult child and help him succeed. If I had not told them what was going on in our lives, they would not have known - and I'm sure the outcome would not have been the same, as difficult child is often disruptive, etc. - not the usual actions that prompt accomodtion from staff or coaches and the like. We have been extremely fortunate on that account. I have had the blank stares from parents - and some unusual questions, etc., but I remind myself consistently that I too would be unaware of the details and knowledge of what goes on with a difficult child if we had not been blessed with one. I think in some ways it has been a good thing to be able to show some people that you can be a typical family with difficult child-ness thrown in. Most people end up amazed that we go on about our business the best we can - and they end up rooting for difficult child. Continued good thoughts coming your way. [/QUOTE]
