[QUOTE="Star*, post: 277096, member: 4964"] WHen you start to see behaviors like this - don't you have a crisis team that can help you help him? SOmeone that will hospitalize him for even 72 hours to give you all a break? WOW.....I remember the knives and the impulsive - in brain out of mouth days. UGH....and the shock value that goes into asking odd questions. Our therapist told us when he confronted us with questions like this - to put on a somber face and say "No why are you?" The first time Dude said something like that I Think he was about 10 or 11 - and I thought WHY YOU LITTLE .....and told the therapist about it. The next time he asked a shock value question I was to act as if he had asked me if the sky was blue (with that type of face and emotion) and then look directly at him and say "No why, are you? do you need us to talk to the doctor about it? Because we're your parents and if you can't stop or have curiosities about things like masturbation well then we need to address those now." Being Frank is /was not my strong suit.....but I got better at it and the dumbs stopped. (mostly) lol Hang tough. [/QUOTE]
