You're a good parent.

Sometime around the age of 3, a part of his brain switched into high gear and got stuck there. He's only calm when he's asleep and can go from sweet to jerk to crying and back, all in the same minute. Some days I don't handle it very well and we get into screaming matches. Some days I cry in the bathroom for an hour after he goes to bed. Every day I get the looks and the "advice". Every day I go to bed thinking I'm a terrible mom, hoping tomorrow will be better. And every day I start over. It's all you can do. *hugsRishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11010932875258083020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1182639204233415343.post-36043391772711826482015-09-28T23:17:08.998+10:002015-09-28T23:17:08.998+10:00well done and well said.

I've worked with small children and each and every one of them is different and each and every one of them has a contribution to make to this world.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12862996761833475061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1182639204233415343.post-87579816480549967362015-09-28T21:14:08.292+10:002015-09-28T21:14:08.292+10:00Oh Maxwell's mumma, I hear you.

My precious, angelic looking girl, spews vitriolic abuse at me, all at the tender age of 5. <br />This caring, loving and genuine child, needs her mumma as much as she needs air for survival. We sadly know the tragedy of Acquired Brain Injury, after Shingles led to encephalitis in infancy. <br />Most days are as you describe, full of yelling, kicking and screaming. We try every new method to lead to better responses, but alas, the end result is the same. <br />To those who judge us, we don't spend less time on behaviour management, most children learn from their consequences, ours must be taught the same lessons dozens of times a day, every day, every week for years and still don't get it. We spend time multiplied by hundreds working on these issues. <br />Please show us and our children compassion. <br />Hugs Max's mummy xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1182639204233415343.post-40832920203527291582015-09-28T20:33:02.317+10:002015-09-28T20:33:02.317+10:00Much love to you Mamma, you do your best all day e...Much love to you Mamma, you do your best all day everyday, you are an amazing strong woman.
