[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 15038, member: 2459"] Fortunately, we haven't had that too much with difficult child. Most of the times though we've talked to him either at that time or later when he's more calm.......depended on what was happening at the time. There have been times though that it seemed he was pretty serious. On one occasion I made an emergency call to his therapist and the last time I took him to the ER where a doctor talked to him and he was ultimately admitted to a facility. Even at your difficult child's age, I wouldn't take it too lightly but at the same time, you have to walk that tightrope and decide if it's something you can talk to difficult child about or if you need to take it a step further. I would think that at that age, sometimes it's just that the kids don't have the language or ability to express their feelings other than saying things like that. I know it's hard. Sending gentle hugs. [/QUOTE]
