[QUOTE="MrsThomsen, post: 539034, member: 14868"] Methuselah, very interesting point about the heart. My easy child is a strong-willed teen whose personality doesn't allow him to apologize. Not a teen thing, he's always been like this. Also, wont take direction or suggeation. Basically never. My 5yo difficult child is violent, hyper, demanding, aggressive, borderline explosive but will apologize from the heart when wrong. Weird. Maybe I have 2 difficult children. It is really hard on my easy child having a little brother who makes it hard to have a relationship with, go anywhere with, have anyone over with, do anything with. He knows it is sad to miss out in that brother relationship. Family dynamics are stressed. The thing I find is I got a little less hard on my easy child when my difficult child came along. He sort of helped me figure what was actually important and what wasn't. I used to get super embarassex when 12yo easy child had to be reminded to say 'Thank you' every single time he got a gift. I didn't know what embarrassed was!!! [/QUOTE]
