[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 291978, member: 7083"] therapist is starting with just trying to change her perspective a little bit - or at least show her that there is, in fact, another perspective. She's doing this through difficult child's journals. difficult child writes *very* well. She expresses herself amazingly well in her writing. And therapist plays up on that a lot. And she uses it to show her that while difficult child is writing about an experience that made her mad, upset her, whatever (miniscule situations blown out of proportion in typical difficult child fashion) that by the way she writes it, the reader actually finds the humor in it. It's hard to explain without giving specific examples, but difficult child isn't 'going off' about it like she would with me and she actually seems to listen to the therapist. She keeps taking in her journal writings, so that's a good sign. [/QUOTE]
