Hi cricket... I'm glad she doesn't have to report it too! I mean, if she did of course I would deserve it, but it would make things so much worse.
I know you don't have to be a perfect mother 100% of the time, but I just feel like I have to! And it weighs so heavily that I'm not. My mother wasn't very emotionally involved and I think I'm going to the opposite extreme.
I did send my son to a friend for a sleepover a week ago. That's always refreshing. :) It's not like he's a bad kid - I don't think kids can BE "bad" at his age. He's just hitting that stage where everything is a Major Battle (he's 1 1/2). And it's sooooooo frustrating. Even for "normal" (ha) people.
> It sounds like your T is really on your side.
Yeah, she is... she's really trying to work with me on this and other issues.When my insurance changed and she wasn't on it, she lowered her rate so that I'd be paying the same deductible I would if she were on it. But she's not going out of her way for me so much that any boundaries are crossed. She also doesn't really care for my diagnoses - she says that people are people, not diagnoses. So I'm fortunate in that she doesn't stigmatize me that way (unlike some p-docs... but that's another story. grr). She's also constantly praising my progress... I have a hard time seeing it myself, but it does make me smile. :)
