[QUOTE="Dharmamama, post: 374606"] Oh, sweetie, I am literally in tears right now for your situation (been crying a lot lately anyway, but still). It sounds like we're raising the same kiddo and the frustration tied to feeling so helpless to affect any change for him can be maddening. The fact is, he doesn't see his perspective as the craziness it is and is completely closed to making thinking changes so you're stuck watching the train- wreck coming on. I've heard that sometimes these children turn around and I've known functional adults who share the same thinking (they hook up with a care-giving co-dependent who keeps them out of trouble) so perhaps this stuff will become just a memory of a difficult time in your life that you walked through with grace and stubborn love. You have my complete empathy and support! Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
