[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 604208, member: 11791"] If a situation is frequently a problem, figure out a different way to accomplish it. Insanity is... doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. We had NO success trying to change difficult child at that age. There was no option but to change the situation. If a certain outing created a major blow-up once, or minor twice, we found alternatives to the timing, to whether it was a group outing or not, different provider, etc. Change something... don't assume that difficult child is at a point where he can handle re-learning how to manage a dozen different problem situations. It isn't going to happen. They don't generalize well. ONE at a time, pick what's important, pre-plan, pre-teach, pre-practice, pre-arrange the "if something goes wrong" game plan. Make as much as possible totally predictable. [/QUOTE]
