[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 682138, member: 19522"] Pasa, I am glad to hear that your boy is making progress. It will be slow and frustrating for him, for sure, but no excuse to be verbally abusive. He will have to learn to turn that frustration around to determination. I think you only help him further,[I] by not standing for it,[/I] but also understanding it may also be a result of his brain injury. When Dad had his stroke, he was not himself for quite some time. He had to be restrained in the hospital from pulling out his iv's. He was very angry with my sister, remembering her when she was rebellious at 15, and treating her thusly. It didn't help that the nurse who cared for him and put him in the restraints had the same name. As Dad would go off into a tirade about "She this and she that" he was ranting about both my sister and the nurse.....it was a confusing time for all of us. He would concoct all kinds of methods of escaping the hospital, and only try to conspire with sis about this. "See that laundry bin over there? Bring it over and I'll roll into it and you can get me the heck out of here..." She had a difficult time visiting, as this was his theme always with her. "Get me out of here." She had to realize, it was the stroke talking. Dad went through rehab and regained more of his reasoning skills, along with working at his physical therapy. It was a hard road, but he did it, and eventually worked the frustration into determination. Mom would not stand for him to be verbally abusive, and she was right to "reteach" him this. Keep up your good attitude Pasa, I so admire your strength and tenacity. Prayers going up here, for both you and your son. :staystrong: leafy [/QUOTE]
