[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 140580, member: 2287"] I've often wondered the same things. Maybe it is ME who caused this...yet I raised two other children with NO problems and there ARE problems in difficult child's bio family. We've been going to the same therapist for over a year now almost every week. Surely if it was ME and husband, the therapist would have said so by now. Still, I don't think we've gotten very far in eight years of intense therapy and medications. I really, really worry that he'll never be able to care for himself. Totoro, you said you have so much fun with your kids. That's nice to hear. I can't remember the time when I even liked being in the same room with difficult child. I hate it, but it's the truth. He's so negative and then so ugly to me with every breath that he takes. I don't know how to change it and I've done everything I can think of. It's not like I sit back on my heels and let it happen......then I wonder if he really can NOT help it or is he just an A**. All I ask of difficult child is to be NICE, nothing else. He just can't seem to do it. I worry that with an attitude like that he'll never hold a job or anything else. On top of all that....I'm tired of crying over it. [/QUOTE]
