[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 73437, member: 3704"] I understand phone phobia well. It comes from too many calls that bring bad news. I cringe everytime our phone rings and I usually let the anwering machine pick it up first just to prepare myself for the situation at hand. With difficult child on one side, easy child away at school with ever changing needs (usually for some new financial support) , and my aging Mom insisting on living on her own hours away from us....it feels like a constant spining of the "Wheel of Mis-Fortune" [img]:smile:[/img] Teenagers always want to be "just like" their peers - although they always feel like they are real rebels. LOL. Being different in any way creates tremendous stress for them. I hope that your difficult children can reach some point of balance with their challenges. I do think that the adults at school should/can assist them with this. It's a process for sure. [/QUOTE]
