[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 683370, member: 4152"] I really like the word "detachment." There is that funny, but poignant book called "Yes, your teen is crazy" and the author says you should hand out logical consequences to household rule infractions like a cop giving a ticket. No emotions. Just the facts. Almost indifferent. You broke the rules..now this is the result. Surely, some kids are different. You can be different. But Difficult Child and most teens require battle gear and armour. Detachment. Get your emotions OUT. Otherwise, you might end up a sniffling mess, pulling your hair out and beating your chest. No thank you. Don't have a big issue with the word "lurker." Maybe "watching." A new person who is watching and waiting for the right moment for their first post...but that is a mouthful. [/QUOTE]
