[QUOTE="klmno, post: 228907, member: 3699"] Oh, it's VERY annoying!! My response varies depending on who says it, although my difficult child has done so much at this point that I don't get the comment much anymore. LOL! A therapist once suggested asking people if they were willing to raise him until he 18 yo, another is to ask what they would do any differently, another is (if I knew the person and knew why that would be disastrous) then say "yeah, the XXX behavior might stop, but think about how then he'd be doing ABC instead". Sorry- there is no way really to help, I think we just have to harden ourselves to it and let it roll off our back. I'll be interested in reading others' responses... [/QUOTE]
