[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 122264, member: 1631"] First off welcome!! It's great you decided to post. Dealing with a typical 13 year old is hard enough, add a difficult child into the mix and things get even harder. I know with my own 14 year old who isn't a difficult child (although sometimes I swear she is) they just don't want to hear a parent's opinion unless it's in agreement with them. These days I try to offer my opinions to her and then move on and try not to dwell. I'm trying to let her feel the natural consequences of things like not doing homework, and other things. Have you read The Explosive Child? That book has helped me a lot in dealing with my difficult child. Glad you joined us! [/QUOTE]
