[quote=Anonymous]I don't have advice, but can empathize. I was late to work today because my 7yo (who we are awaiting psych eval in April) insisted last minute on bringing a disposable fork named Forky, to whom she had added googly eyes and pipe cleaner arms. She refused to leave the house without it. I didn't have time for a battle or the tantrum that would ensue. She often starts a power struggle as we are trying to leave. (My sweater is the wrong color, I need a different hair style, I'm drawing a picture for my teacher) and it becomes impossible to peacefully leave the house. And, as you know, wrestling an angry 40-50 lb child into the car doesn't work very well. Also, her dad and I are divorced, and he helpfully texted me that if I stop letting her win, she will stop fighting me. Thanks, Captain Obvious. It sounds like you are trying so hard. Many of us are struggling with you. It's not easy![/quote]
