[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 440216, member: 1631"] DF-The scratching stuff does drive us up the wall. Maybe a video is a good idea because nothing we seem to do gets him to stop. Susie-We definitely have spoken with her about the signs that she is getting angry and recognizing it as has her therapist. Maybe she needs to hear it from others too. Fran-You are partially right; easy child/difficult child cannot stand difficult child (understandably so). However, difficult child keeps trying to win her approval, he actually does like her. difficult child is generally empathetic (unfortunately after the fact-or in situations that don't directly involve him- and does show remorse), however, he is very self absorbed and does not have a lot of self regulation. I completely agree with you that easy child/difficult child's outrage is normal, it's how she is handling it. We have tried to get her to handle it in a better way but it may be as you say until she is away from difficult child things won't get better. I'm sure much of what has made her a easy child/difficult child is as you say. She does look at how we deal with difficult child as tolerating. I'm sure there are many things we should have done differently in regards to easy child/difficult child.
