[QUOTE="xlagirl, post: 368184"] I can relate, even though my difficult child is only 8 yrs old, he is the size of a fiften year old. A very BIG boy! I can not get him to do any chores at all ! Not even feed his own bunny. He will throw a full blown meltdown if I try to force him to do anything. Including...... a bath, brushing his rotten teeth, putting on deoderant (that boy sure can stink for his age!), and picking up any of his toys. What a daily struggle! Plus, whenever he asks for something (ie: a new video game, a new video system, toys, battle cards, or food) and if I say "No" for whatever reason.....he just explodes!! He is very easy to trigger and he hates the word NO. Mine also has extreame hunger (so he thinks) and even after a big meal (10-15 mins later) he is claiming he's hungry again. I have tried and tried to explain that it'sjust a side effect of his medicine that is telling his brain that he is hungry, but in fact... his stomach is actually full. He is very smart, but he refuses to believe it. I also have a easy child that is 17 years old and All I can say is...... hang in there. It's not going to get better, as some may say to you.....but hopefully you will gain some strength to keep going. Don't give up! They are worth it..... in every unique, odd, and painful way!! :) xlagirl [/QUOTE]
