[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 392496, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]It's really a hit & miss with this situation. For myself, when the tweedles were much younger & more prone to major meltdowns, rages & dissociative states I'd fully explain the situation to those who had to know. Teachers, family, friends, etc. I had responses all over the place ~ from "hand 'em back" to "aren't you being a bit too hard on kt/wm?" kind of stuff. I informed these people because of the safety concerns. I didn't go into background hx with all; nor did everyone need to know the diagnosis's. It was the dangerous stuff. That usually required a bit of education. My child(ren)'s brain is hard wired or there is a neuro chemical issue, emotional stuff & all of the above. I have to say that I found myself explaining that I had adopted my children so I wouldn't be accused of past child abuse. I see very little in parental failings my dear; rather I see a wise mum choosing her battles wisely. There will come a time where you will be able to "push back" a bit more; heck you may even stop being a therapeutic mum & let your kids know you have real feelings. I'm doing it & the tweedles hate it. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
