[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 402584, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]How invested is your difficult child in his own treatment? Does he believe any of what is being done on his behalf is benefitial? I've come to the conclusion that unless our difficult children are invested & aware of their own diagnosis's & resulting treatment plans they will do little to nothing to work on their own issues. I know that medications can/do come into play but once medications are stabilized there has a willingness on your difficult children part to participate. You're not the only one spinning wheels; your difficult child is as well. Rewards & consequences have little to no effect on my difficult child wm. He is simply not invested about his treatment nor is he interested in a different "way of life". That is wm however. kt is invested, learning & working her behind off to make things better. She's studied her diagnosis's, her medications & her treatment plan. She's invested in her own life. AND that has come with maturity. It's not time to throw in the towel, so to speak. in my humble opinion, you need to find your difficult children passion ~ just one thing that he is excited about. Art, music, skateboarding.....???? Something outside of the small world in which he is existing. It made a difference in kt's life when that happened. Please keep us updated. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
