[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 441719, member: 1991"] If you roll your cursor over the acronym, a question mark appears. Click and it should tell you what it means. difficult child means Gift From God, the kid that brought you here. easy child means Perfect Child, although we know none are perfect really. It sounds like something really serious is going on and not just impulse control. The medications may also be part of the problem - we're just weaning difficult child 3 off an anti-anxiety medication which, now he's getting off it, he now says was making him "fuzzy". Especially with a younger child, they don't know what normal is and so can't really tell you if the medications are not helping or causing problems. The WOW factor is a good one to watch for, with medications. If you start the kid on a new medication and see, "Wow! What an improvement!" then you keep using it. But if there is no huge wow factor, you need to reconsider whether the medication is worth the hassle and expense. Marg [/QUOTE]
