[QUOTE="shellyd67, post: 356903, member: 6371"] Wow, I thought I was the only one who had these feelings. I would often daydream about family outings without difficult child.... or throwing a party at my house with family and friends again without difficult child being in attendance. He seems to ruin every fun function we have or attend. Oh, how guilty I feel for saying those words. My story sounds so similar to yours that it is scary. Today he did his homework (after freaking out and crying over putting words in alphabetical order) and when I said, "great job bud" he looked at me so mean and said, " don't give me encouragement". I felt like calling him a jerk but just walked away. Oh and then he told me for mother's day he was giving me poop. Sweet boy my difficult child. I often wonder "why me" I love this child more than anything and take care of him, nuture, him ... hell, I would walk thru fire to save his life ! I am trying to take each day as it comes and try not to think to far ahead because quite frankly it scares me beyond belief. I just started reading The Explosive Child under the advice of many parents on the board. I hope it helps because I think I have purchased every book on difficult children in circulation. I hope you have better days ahead and I will keep you and your difficult child in my prayers. Please try and keep your chin up. And spill Koolaid on her bedroom floor and leave it there ! Just Kidding !:happy: [/QUOTE]
