[QUOTE="Fran, post: 371130, member: 3"] I sure get it. My difficult child does much better when I tell him the chore list for the next day and then leave a list. He just doesn't do well with spur of the moment jobs. It throws him out of his own rhythm. There are very few family outings that were mandatory. If he didn't want to go, I didn't force him. It gave him some control and made it easier for us to enjoy ourselves with out the scowl of a miserable teen. I wouldn't go back to those teen years for anything. Everything was magnified from 11 to 15. You have my sympathy. [/QUOTE]
