[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 580518, member: 3419"] Welcome, Seeker78. From your brief description, I can guarantee you that it is not your parenting skills that are the issue. You can learn new skills. But with-o a proper diagnosis for your 6-yr-old, you don't know which skills to use. Consistency, yes. However, there is more to it. For example, if you consistently give your son 6 things to do, and he forgets all but one, then it's not working. Maybe he can only remember one thing at a time. Routine is good. But if it's a routine that he can't cope with, then it's useless. I totally agree with-Buddy--he lacks the coping skills to do what he is supposed to do. He is missing something. A good evaluation will help. So sorry about your husband. Unfortunately, that kind of response seems to be the norm. [/QUOTE]
