[QUOTE="Fran, post: 166817, member: 3"] Suz, you are so right about our kids evolving with age. Funny thing is it doesn't seem so difficult to remember that with difficult child as it is with easy child. I am much less tolerant of his weaknesses or tripping over obstacles. I work hard on biting my tongue and realizing all the good stuff but it's more effort. With difficult child I have pretty low expectations so when he hits one, I'm ecstatic. I was no "day at the beach" to my mom between 10 and 12. Very mouthy and disrespectful. I was definitely a easy child with an attitude. Fortunately, I figured out how to navigate the world early and it made me a lot more forgiving and tolerant. I really grew up between 20 and 25. Of course, we all keep evolving with every age if we want to do so. I think of them as chapters in my life. I move on after that chapter is finished. Hopefully our kids will too. [/QUOTE]
