Hi all, We've moved into a bigger place and both difficult child's regressed. The blue lady came back for difficult child 1. She appears in the school bathroom. Has blood on her face and a knife in her pocket. difficult child 1 was wetting his pants everyday at school, some at home, and wetting the bed at night. Since school got out he is just wetting some at home and his bed at night. He is in a behavior program and I'm not sure its a good thing. They are under the assumption that all his behavior is learned and that he can control it all. This is the little boy that told me he pushed difficult child 2 because "difficult child 2 is a vampire and wants to bite me" Some of the stuff coming out of his mouth would be funny if he didn't believe it 100%. There is lots of pressure on difficult child 1 to improve his behavior and I'm not sure he can. Those kinds of comments dramatically decreased when the psychiatrist increased the risperdal.
difficult child 2's words have decreased but his intonation has improved. So, I know he wants something because of his intonation is a question, but I don't know what he wants because he is slurring his words together. Before he would be leaving the endings off the few words he would use. Now I'm not getting the beginning sounds either. Also, our next door neighbor has a little girl that terrorizes him. Today I had to take her by the hand (drag her along the ground) to her mother to get her to stop. She is only 3 1/2. She just won't leave difficult child 2 alone. Most times if she is outside we don't go out. Thank goodness she is moving in the next few weeks.
easy child has learned how to walk!!!! And husband is still husband. And money problems are still there, but this time its not husband's fault. We're just swamped with bills. They seem to be coming out of the woodwork. The lawyer's office held onto a bill for 8 months before telling us about it. A utility place held onto a bill for a year and a half before telling us about it. Isn't that illegal? Both these bills I had thought payed off.
Sorry this is so long. I just haven't updated in a while.
