[QUOTE="givnmegryhr, post: 24516, member: 2113"] I am sitting here bawling my eyes out after reading this article. My oldest daughter ,11, is starting to act out more and more. I don't know if its the results of living with her difficult child brother's behavior or if it's something I should start being concerned about. I have told her if her temper doesnt get better soon we will be having her evaluated. My oldest son,13 , has always been a great student. He is an all around great kid. This morning I got a call from his AlgebraII teacher. He is struggling and during tests he said he rushes through. If he can't figure out a problem right away, he becomes extremely,extremely frustrated. This concerned the teacher. It concerns me too. My youngest daughter,9 , worries me the most. Being small she takes alot of abuse from difficult child, but always plays with him, goes right back to playing with him after he has hurt her. I am so worried she will grow up and be in an abusive relationship because she is so use to it. She has told me of kids at school treating her badly , but she still goes back to playing with them. She has gotten better at standing up for herself, which I am very proud of her for. We are still waiting for family therapy, which I think anyone who has other children in the home should get. I am finding you have to really push. I have high hopes that it will help. [/QUOTE]
