[QUOTE="tJoy&sRose, post: 333082, member: 8782"] Thanks Andy for the supportive words and advice. We do try to keep many aspects of the day as structured as possible. One of the biggest struggles with our difficult child is something the doctor talked to us about today which is an apparent total uncomprehension of cause/effect whether thats good behavior = positive reinforcement or the bad behavior = negative result. Its a struggle when any trivial trigger can create "the meltdown". Wondering if anyone has advice in regards to handling the situation where anything that doesn't happen exactly to difficult child's ideas, specifications, or desires causes outbursts. I totally understand "picking your battles" and we do this as much as is reasonable.... guess i'm feeling stuck without a solution. [/QUOTE]
