[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 73521, member: 3837"] 1 Day-Usually my motto is "One fire at a time boys." Yesterday just got me down. I think its like this. I can gripe about my kids, but don't anyone else dare tell me how awful they are. I was just annoyed that she didn't have a single nice think to say about difficult child. Yes, he is a pain in the rump, but he is also a very sweet boy and a great little helper. It just gets me down when everyone else seems down about difficult children and they make the situation seem hopeless. If I can't get his teacher to help him, he's not going to have the consistancy he needs to do better this year. That makes things just seem all that much worse. I guess I'm okay with her venting, as long as she has a positive outlook for the future and I just didn't see that. She just felt, he needs to learn to do these things himself and by god I'm going to make him and that just doesn't work. I've tried it, I know. The money thing, well, we just aren't usually this tight. And since I deal with it all and husband doesn't even have a clue usually, there isn't someone else to handle it when I stress. I talk to husband about it, but I swear he acts like he's seen a shiny object and drifts off into never never land. [/QUOTE]
