[QUOTE="tryingtocope, post: 26747, member: 3549"] Thank you momof4 and jal. Your advice and words of encouragement got me through a difficult day with difficult child. We went to the park today and he had several meltdowns within ten minutes of getting there. I moved my seat because the sun was in my eyes. He wanted me to stay where I was sitting before and even though I explained why I switched my seat, he would not accept that. He started screaming at me and when I refused to switch my seat, he hit me in the face with his hat. I warned him to not hit me again and if he did we would leave the park. He continued screaming at me and hit me again. I grabbed him and left the park. I don't know if I did the right thing, but I didn't know what else to do. He is constantly having meltdowns especially if I refuse to do something he wants, say the wrong thing or I'm on the telephone. Anyway, the afternoon was better. I need to read The Explosive Child. I started reading it but didn't get too far. Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
