[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 128541, member: 805"] Sharon, :tears:I am sorry to hear this news. I kinda thought this is what you were inferring the other day. Sharon, I have been "talking" with you daily on the morning thread for a years now. Our situations are similiar in that we are raising children of mixed or different races, we both have an older easy child girl and a younger easy child boy, not to mention our names! I have felt a connection to you. I have to say that this situation with difficult child is not going to change unless something different is done. Each and every time his violence has increased, so have his medications. It works for awhile and then it's back to square one. I don't understand why his docs are trying to keep him out of the hospital. What is the reasoning for this? As much as it will break your heart and change your immediate life, the goal would be to get difficult child some help - some intensive day-in, day-out kinda help. You are such a wonderful mother. You do so much for your children, to keep them stimulated and happy. I hate to watch from afar your being hurt. And I know the violence on the outside doesn't compare to the pain on the inside. Sharon, I think you and husband may have to face the fact that difficult child will be better off in another setting while getting a handle on his anger and his medications. You don't want him to continue on this path. Right now husband can step end and remove him, but imagine him being 14 and getting violent with you. You, your husband, and your easy child could be in danger. You have an obligation to address this issue for the benefit of all of you. I think the time has come for your family to take a really hard look at what is going to be best for difficult child. We all had/have visions of what we want our family to be. We have visions of the things that make a family. But sometimes those visions get in the way of reality. I know it did for me. I think the reality here is that difficult child needs help, needs serious intervention help. I don't thing he can get it while he continues to live at home and go to school and go to wrestling...... I think you, husband, and easy child need a break here. You are all three probably ready to POP! Please talk again with the docs about a game plan here. You sould not be touched. I ask you Sharon, if a new poster came here and was experiencing violence from her difficult child that had been going on for awhile, what would you recommend? Lots of hugs and love :flower:, Sharon [/QUOTE]
