[QUOTE="FlowerGarden, post: 598619, member: 3068"] We recently had a conversation with our pcs about this! It was a short conversation while we were out for a bite to eat. difficult child had to work. They both agreed that they learned how to handle other people better. With difficult child we would have to figure out our own "manipulation" of him to get him to do what we wanted with the least amount of response. One easy child is a teacher and he feels having a difficult child made him into a terrific teacher. He gets a lot of compliments on how he can listen to the kids and how he handles the difficult children in class. He teaches high school. Yes, they definitely feel they missed out on things because of difficult child. They were glad that we did coach their sports teams and attended everything that we weren't physically involved in. Both got the attention and praise. BOTH admit that they definitely took advantage of knowing what would make difficult child explode & using it quite often! [/QUOTE]
