[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This morning I absolutely lost it and told him point blank that he is the reason at the center of his problems. If he is experiencing negativity, it is because he is behaving in ways that generate that reaction in me and others. He isn't entitled to endless understanding; at a certain point he has to look in the mirror.[/quote]

He is not responsible for how you react!!! Why would you say that? kids with ADHD and autism (sounds like he really is on the spectrum) have super low self esteen anyway. Have you tried positive reinforcements such as giving him lots of praise even for things that seem dumb to you? [/quote]

People are responsible for understanding the effects of their actions and inactions on other people and to put two and two together when getting messages back from the world about what they are putting into it. Of course we are all responsible for how we interact with the world.[/quote]

Sure, and YOU are responsible for how you react to him. Just like you are responsible for how you react to your husband, boss, mother, etc. You are not going to motivate him by constantly telling him he is failing at everything and what a huge disappointment he is to you.[/quote]

You also aren’t going to ever motivate him. Certainly not ona consistent basis. [/quote]
