[QUOTE="HeadlightsMom, post: 635977, member: 18284"] Overwhelmedsince76 --- I don't know your difficult child, so I can't speak to his specifics. MWM does make a good point about confirming if disabilities are present. 65 is a fairly low IQ. Our difficult child's birth mother (born fetal alcohol syndrome) has a confirmed IQ of 70 and she lives in a group home (has for many years now). Echolette -- I like your suggestion to print it out and stick it on the back of your phone. Great place for reminders! I sometimes think I should tattoo certain things on my forehead. LOL! Overwhelmedsince76 --- Whatever happens with your difficult child, you don't deserve to be verbally assaulted. You matter. A lot. We all do (difficult child's and easy child's and whatever all other descriptive acronyms we can imagine). Side Note --- Not sure how easy it would be to raise a difficult child predisposed to cursing rants (say, like Tourette Syndrome?). I think it'd be much easier to not absorb, if I had it medically confirmed by doctors that it may be largely out of their control. Still..........I'm likin' that printed suggestion on the back of the phone thang! All my best wishes to you, Overwhelmedsince76 (can I call you OWS76 now?) ;) Take care and you DO have support from us all to take care of yourself and set boundaries when/where needed! [/QUOTE]
