[QUOTE="Star*, post: 167580, member: 4964"] I think this person is clueless about difficult child's. IMVHO. Perhaps she told you this for you to try when difficult child is violent? IF so it's a poor tactic. In order for children who are violent to stop - they need to understand WHY they are angry and they need coping skills taught to them so they can STOP the anger and DO something about it. WIthout those skills - you are fighting a loosing battle. It IS okay to be angry - IT IS NOT OKAY to be physically violent with anyone when you are angry - instead they should have an arsenal of exercises or outlets in lieu of that rage. You sitting down isn't teaching your difficult child a thing - And actually you make yourself MORE vulnerable. True - it should not happen IRREGARDLESS - but if she wanted to teach you something helpful - Get the book How to talk so your teens will listen and how to listen so your teens will talk. It's PRICELESS. Even when they get angry - YOU have tools to disarm them. Hugs [/QUOTE]
