[QUOTE="ksm, post: 599919, member: 12511"] Oh, what a difference between a difficult child and a easy child! I thought yesterday had gone pretty well. We didn't keep berating them after the first discussion in the morning when we told them how disappointed we were in their behavior. We did some things together and difficult child only got grumpy a couple times. Last night, I went to easy child's room and I could tell she was crying in bed. I tried to console her but she wouldn't stop. Had her come downstairs with us for a while and tried to talk to her and she just couldn't stop crying. Finally, thru tears, she said "I ruined everything!" We explained that she had made a big mistake, but everything wasn't ruined. That our trust would come back, but it would take time and good choices. And that even if she made another stupid mistake in the future, nothing is ruined forever as long as we change our behavior. difficult child? no deep sense of remorse, just irritation that she can't talk to her friends. She hasn't really came to us to apologize or express any remorse. KSM [/QUOTE]
