[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 435387, member: 1233"] They will have things for him to do and he will soon see that many kids do NOT have visitors each week. You are totally NOT required to see him every week. Wiz was in a psychiatric hospital for 4 months and I went several times a week for various things. husband went when he could, mostly on weekends but a few times during the week when my mom and/or dad had promised to go and then changed their mind - if he was promised a visit we did not want to leave him sitting there waiting with no one coming. Take at least one weekend a month and do not go. Both you and the kids NEED this. Taking the other kids camping is NOT punitive. It is realizing that difficult children needs cannot control the rest of the family all the time. That is life, not punishment. [/QUOTE]
