[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 135560"] Back when difficult child was really spiraling and refusing therapy....she came to me sobbing, telling me she hates her life and she wants to die. So, I tried to talk to her about therapy and how it helps and she was continuing to refuse saying she wasn't stupid. I told her that she was miserable all the time. She said, "So! I'm not going to die!" *shakes head* Or - more recently - when I told her to watch her tone, she said, "How can I watch my tone??? I can't see my words coming out of my mouth!" She's sooo good at compensating, my darling girl, that I forget that she can be very literal. Even at that, I just stood back unable to decide if she just didn't understand or if she was being a smart-mouth. I just let it go. LOL She had such an advanced vocabulary at such a young age, that at 2 years old it was like talking to an adult. I can't count how many times I would just stop and stare at her at the words coming out of her mouth...not only did she know the words, she was using them appropriately (and I don't mean bad words ;) ).
