[quote=Anonymous]You got a little out of control and gave yourself a time out. That's what you're supposed to do. I absolve you! Now, stop being so hard on yourself. When I have moments like yours, I apologize to the kids afterwards. Then, when I have a quiet moment with them and we're talking about ADHD, our brains, control, etc., I remind them of the time I got out of control and needed a time out. We all have those moments. We need to recognize what happened and then try to do a better job next time. When you're DS has his moments, I'm sure you don't keep beating him up afterwards about it - you should do the same for yourself. Also, don't lose hope. You're doing a great job with hm and with all that you're doing, he will be okay. It may take him longer to mature but you should have every expectation of success for him. It's just hard right now. Good luck and lots of hugs.[/quote]
