[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a highly unstable environment. When I think about DS's life, I know that while I'm not perfect, it is way different than my own experiences. I probably apply too much academic pressure and on bad days when DS doesn't listen well I can become impatient instead of remembering what actually works (he has ADHD and is unfazed by my impatience:) -- but think about it. Our kids are not fearful of physical retaliation from us, they know they are walking into a predictable, loving home at the end of each school day. They know that there is plenty of good food and the adults are concerned for their well being even if they don't always show it perfectly. Just a soapbox from someone who grew up in a much different environment. [/quote]
