[QUOTE="Shari, post: 332849, member: 1848"] I wouldn't expect an apology (right now) either. Somewhere down the road, when she has learned what she needs to do to keep herself in a better place, maybe then...but not now. And like Timer said, in my experience, dealing with difficult child's is very here and now. Every request has to be analyzed, every response option weighed, every possible outcome explored and weighted before the request is answered...if my difficult child is teetering on the edge, "No" is reserved for things like "can I play in traffic with a loaded shotgun?"
