[QUOTE="Dixies_fire, post: 588832, member: 16184"] Maybe I'm kidding myself... I have successful days and not so successful parenting days and if we need to work our family dynamic I'm willing. Honestly watching my friend with the child who has autism she makes me feel inferior because her house runs like a well oiled machine. There's a protocol for how she deals with every situation and it doesn't vary. And if it some of it worked for terryn then you're right maybe more of it will. Tk and I discussed death in detail the last time I pulled her off of her brother. I don't know if I did it right but I told her death was permanent as we have lost pets and my dad died she seemed to get that. I said what I always say about the hitting "when you put your hands on someone else you never know what will happen." Because sometimes she has just done a quick shove of her brother and it ended up in disastrous results and it seemed to shock her. "I just pushed him! Why is he bleeding! I didn't mean to." I said if she killed her brother even if she didn't mean to that I would be angry, her dad would be angry, her grand mother etc, and that no one would forgive her for that. That people would not care if it was an accident and not only would boyo be dead and not coming back but she would go to jail or a mental hospital for what she did and no one would feel bad for her. It seemed to take a minute to process. And what floored her the most is that no one would feel bad for her if she ended up in jail and that it wasn't a forgivable offense. That seemed to make some kind on impression. I don't think she was ever purposely trying to kill him but I think she thought whatever she did to him, she would be forgiven for it by the family. Thanks for Terryn responses. [/QUOTE]
