Re: What Happened to Ricky

[Guest guest]

What Happened to Ricky has me in tears. I would never want that for

my . I know that unless we can stablize 's behaviors his

sister will not be able to take care of him when we are gone. His

sister loves him.When she was about 3yrs old she said " Mom will

live with me someday " , and I said " Honey your whoever you marry may

not want him there, " and she said " Well he would have to know before

we got married. " However back then he was not abussive towards

us.Since then he slapped her in the face but she still loves him. He

learned the word " mean " because when he slapped her face hard she

said that was mean.But then she kissed him.I know that the

behavior therapist would not agree with this type of response telling

him mean and then kissing him. But we love him and we do not want him

to think we are mean to him.He does everything we do swimming,

walking, playing basketball, and chase.He is our world.Cyndi B
