[QUOTE="neednewtechnique, post: 75084, member: 3527"] Welcome Kimberly, sounds like you and I have lots in common. We, too, took custody of my step-difficult child in January, and have the same complications you do as far as trying to undo several years worth of damage already done. Unfortunately, it took us longer to get ahold of ours and we are looking at undo-ing nearly 13 years of damage. Taking on a child like this unexpectedly is quite an ordeal and this place has been my saving grace!!! I know you will find support here and will bond with many of the other parents. As others have said, you should fill out your profile and include a signature as the rest of us have as it provides quick access to information about your difficult child and will help others recognize you. I can't believe we made it to the third reply on a new member without mention of the book....but the wonders never cease. Most of the parents you will meet here will swear by a book that you should definitely read. It is such a big help in understanding your difficult child's problems and great with tips on how to handle. It is called "The Explosive Child" by Dr. Ross Greene. Very nice to meet you and I hope that you will continue to post, us parents have to stick together and be here for one another to get through this and if you ever need us, there's always someone here!!
