[QUOTE="Mom2oddson, post: 368169, member: 65"] Welcome! This is a great place with very supportive people. They help me keep my sanity. First, you are doing the best you can from where you are right now. One of the parents here once said "you did the best you could, if you could of done better, you would of." And it is very true. Any parent can parent a easy child (perfect child), but a difficult child (Gift from God)... those take a warrior Mom. And that is what you are. You are fighting a huge battle with and for your children. It takes a lot of strength and determination. And you are showing it every day, by reading and researching, and by finding this site to help you. I understand the "last all day" battles. My son (difficult child-A) at age 10, started the day with "you hate me. I know you do. Just admit it". It went on and on with me reassuring him over and over that I did love him. After 10 hours of this, non-stop, I finally said, "Fine, I hate you. Are you happy now?" which started the "See, I knew it" until bedtime. Just hang in there. You will survive it...sometime barely, but you will survive. I'd recommend reading "The Explosive Child" and "The Defiant Child" (can't remember the authors that wrote them) but they helped me and many others here. And come back and see us often. Just knowing that you aren't alone is a big help. [/QUOTE]
