[QUOTE="firehorsewoman, post: 553894"] I feel the need to clarify. I do not think that the problems we have with our difficult children young and old can be solved simplistically. If that were the case sticker charts would have worked years ago and I would not have found this place when difficult child was three years old. Perhaps the parents of that poster on the other thread did talk to him proactively? I never meant to imply that they did not. I know that we are up against hard-wiring and genetics and environment and peers and the media and a whole bunch of other challenges. I was just hoping that someone out there would give me a glimmer of hope that some of their proactive early parenting paid off. Geez, I really need to stop reading the PE posts. I feel like there is no hope when I read them. Then again, I remind myself how this forum self-selects. The happier endings are NOT hanging out and posting here. [/QUOTE]
