[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 655435, member: 17542"] Lil most of all of that kind of talk is code for "mommy save me." They do it because it has always worked and it is the dance we have danced. Remember that. Don't allow yourself to forget that. Most all of us on this goes have had the same conversations. They like none of our ideas and if they half heartedly agree to pursue one of the ideas discussed somehow it never materialized and nothing rises up to take its place. It is circular thinking and circular reasoning and they do it because it works. It is very hard to stick to your guns but it is my experience that letting them feel the natural consequences of their own choices is the only way for change to have a chance. Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
