[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 573153, member: 14557"] It is a process. With us there has also been the problem that no one has ever been able to say, what is wrong with our difficult child. He has been different from the day he was born and we certainly noticed it from early on that he wasn't quite like others and that he struggled with this and that. But only diagnosis he got as a kid was Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) - and even that was not an official ICD-10 diagnosis. Every evaluation and testing came back as: he is different, but not in the way they could diagnose. Our younger kid is super easy child and comparing the two made it even more clear, that something is amiss with difficult child and it is something very core of him and will always be different. Maybe that helped too. I see it so, that the difference really is in the core of him and not something superficial that could be changed or fixed. It wouldn't be him, if it would be 'fixed.' And because I happen to love [B]him [/B]very much I wouldn't even want that. Now, his coping skills and other life skills. They are the another matter. While he struggles with many skills, he is also learning and I sincerely hope he learns as well as possible and that will make his life easier. But that is not about changing the core of him.
