[QUOTE="DDD, post: 405654, member: 35"] I've been thinking about you. I'm assuming the heartfelt advice probably has shocked you as you expected suggestions on how to solve the problem. I'm sorry. I just wanted to add that your husband may be and probably is a wonderful man. The thing is that difficult children, more than the rest of us, are an accumulation of their life experiences. Every single expert states that the early years are the most important formative years. They can't be undone. When issues arise later on it is not a simple matter of finding a good therapist or a good psychiatrist. If you husband agrees to take his daughter to find help it will take a long time (some say forever with-o much hope for permanent change) and it will take intensive treatment. He won't be able to make an appointment, attend an appointment and solve the problem. That's why so many of us have been on this CD Board for five, ten, fifteen years. Unlike a physical ailment that can be solved by surgery or medications...mental health and emotional issues take daily,diligent supervision for years and years. It can and does effect everyone around. The responses you've received have been offered from the hearts of people who are leading lives you don't want to copy. Many hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
