[QUOTE="totoro, post: 177054, member: 3155"] Not a lot to offer. I am here with you. I too am feeling the frustration and stress of an unstable child. I hate it when I get angry with K or N... I almost yelled at N tonight because she is fixating on swimming tomorrow. She has a list of things and the order of how they HAVE to be done. Well we are having rain for the first time in a couple of months and it is actually windy and cool! She has reminded husband and I about her list about 11 times now. I started to lose my temper, but stopped. I looked at her little face and remembered she can't help it. I tried to explain to her that she may change her mind, we may do something "more fun" who knows, things change. So she says, "I will never change my mind" Between her and K I just about lose it everyday. It is so hard, no-one ever prepared us for this! One thing is husband is reading Dr. Mani Pavuluri's new book, "What works for Bipolar kids: help and hope for parents" He is blown away by it. He is waiting until I read it before we start working with it together. She has great tips even for kids with all disorders. A lot on No Negativity. A lot of Cognitive Behavior Therapy techniques. She has charts which she suggests we print and post... lots of parenting and family tips. I am actually excited to read it. I would read it even if K were not or suspected BiPolar (BP). [/QUOTE]
