[QUOTE="Josie, post: 97699, member: 1792"] My family knows about this problem but I don't think they know how bad it really is. They can be critical, too. They probably wouldn't say anything to me but I would know or at least feel like they were being critical behind my back of me and of difficult child. While I have tried to educate them in the past that it is not a behaviour issue but a mental one, I doubt they get it. There are some difficult cousins involved, too. difficult child often feels left out. Sometimes the car hurts her head. Sometimes, the one I call former difficult child is in a difficult child frame of mind and the car is the worst place for us all to be together. A lot of the time, they have their headphones on and watch movies and it's fine. Really, if this were my in-laws who live much farther away, there is no way we would attempt this trip. That makes me think we would be better off not trying. But then I picture us miserable at home in the same rut we've been in. That's why I can't really decide. I do like the idea of a hotel room. SRL, not that I would wish this on anyone but it does give me comfort to know that someone else has been through this and come out on the other side. How long did it last for your son? [/QUOTE]
