[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 186155"] I think you make a good point. My difficult child (I don't always use difficult child...I often say special needs child or daughter, etc.) has one ex friend that I refer to as "evil" difficult child. I am conflicted as to whether or not this is okay...probably not. My reason for this is because this girl likes to "stir" the pot (if you get my drift), shows no remorse for her behavior and lies constantly. She doesn't seem to have a redeeming quality. To make matters worse, both mom and dad are the same way. Even when my daughter frustrates me to no end, I can see her good heart and little bits of goodness/intelligence/hope here and there. This person is cold and calculating and she gives me the chills. Again...I think you make a good point and appreciate your comment. I do know I have had my moments (I try to keep the BRIEF) where I have felt despair knowing or suspecting others have ridiculed our child or our family due to her illness. There have been times these things were said verbally. Such things (when heard or read...would be very hard to be taken back). I will even do my best to refrain from making desparaging remarks about the above child...but as you know, no one is fully free from bias. It is helpful to be reminded to avoid saying hurtful things.
