[QUOTE="buddy, post: 505542, member: 12886"] I love how terry put it... I was thinking of how to say it but I dont live that kind of detachment life as much. but as she puts it in this context I can see that is a great way to say it. That is exactly what I have naturally started to do lately. It just gets to be too much and when you are too close, for me anyway, it is hard to make objective parenting decisions in his best interest. I say things too quickly that I regret then... not ugly things but things that make the situation worse or increase his anxiety by going to a strict consequence route instead of more moderate.... a consequence and a way to solve things and do better... yeah, just saying try harder when you have spent every ounce of energy on this child who can bleed you dry... not the right way to say it. For me it is just making conscious choices to do things that help me feel better about things... Doesn't always work but usually does. Some days, just having him gone works really well. Sigh. For you, will be something different. [/QUOTE]
