[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 125543, member: 1991"] Hang in there, BBK. When it all comes off OK, THAT is your reward. it is all you expected, isn't it? And I agree, I think the tantrum was because when you said "tomorrow," she thought it meant "tomorrow, instead of school." Her focus seems to be, "all I want to think about, is getting out of school. If it doesn't get me off school, I don't want to know about it right now." If you'd said, "tomorrow night," you might have never experienced this tantrum. Me - I'd be leaving the room when she says mean things right now. Not worth engaging, not even to the point of remaining in her presence. Here's hoping tomorrow is a better day, once she's got this crud out of her system. Meantime, big hugs to you. Marg [/QUOTE]
