Quote From: blueeberriWell it is great that your kids turned out nice. Try being the mother to a problem child or a handicapped child. IT is draining and NOT rewarding. Especially when you have to work all day and come home to a problem every night. It is not what it is cracked up to be for everyone. Give her a break. It is easy for you top talk to talk, but walk in the shoes of someone with a difficult child. It is not that rewarding.
my kids turned out so great from alot of hard work, I knew everything I did effected them then,now and in the future. I am a mother of a son with autism, draining at times yes, it can be .but I look at him and know its more draining on him. but very rewarding for me to see him adjust and rewarding for him to overcome despite of it. I was a mother who was told to expected the worst when my child was only 3, His future was limited at best. Thank god they where wrong and I choose to push forward and expected more and not less. My son is now a honor roll student in 4th grade in a typical class setting doing typical 4th grade work, acting and doing things a boy of 10 likes to do. He has to have more control over himself, and contol over the way he thinks , he has the isms of any autistic child, but that is who he is ,apart of him.
Stop thinking about your woes as problems and start looking for solutions, you set the standards in your home and how your children are effected in said solutions.
good luck in running your house hold instead of your house hold running you.
