I'm taking GS to the doctor today. He's been wetting the bed and even wet his pants twice this week. He hasn't had an accident in months. He actually started doing better with potty training after difficult child was out of the house. Not sure if it's a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) or anger issues or both. Asking the doctor for a referral to a therapist for him, either way. He's only 3 but he is really feeling angry at times, acting out and all. He'll talk about mommy every once in a while but he has no interest in speaking with her or face timing most of the time.
husband seems to think more interaction with difficult child will help. I'm not so sure as every time we talk about her, speak with her, etc, he ends up getting in trouble at daycare for hitting friends and he becomes a totally different kid (not in a good way). husband wants to have difficult child start coming to the house every 2 weeks for 2 hours to spend time. He's hoping it will alleviate GS's feelings of abandonment.
He's only seen her twice since she entered rehab in September. Unfortunately, she's not showing a lot of interest in him. I don't have much confidence she will be back for him, ever. So I'm a little torn. I really don't care about difficult child's feelings at this point. My only concern is GS and how to make life easier for him during this huge transition.
Anyone been through this? How did you handle these issues?
