is your child's behavior predictable

[Guest guest]

Hi,

We got Jonah's diagnosis almost 1 year ago. We have learned alot

from him since then. I know it will be a long journey ahead.

Jonah is having a hard time this week. My husband and I looked at

eachother tonight and we both felt it was the transition from winter

break and going back to school. Like all school breaks (even

weekends), Jonah asks every time if there is school that day. He

counts down the days left and gets almost manic when the day comes.

About 1 to 2 days into the week back, his mood changes for the

worst. He becomes a little insulting, resistant even more, won't

want to do homework, eat, take a bath. Everything that he has to do

becomes a fight. He eventually balances out and then a freaken

weekend will come. Anyway, do any of your kids do this? It almost

seems predictable, his behavior. I mean what if i had 20 more hours

in a day, i could actually protect his every move -- how sick is

that - i hope i never become that enabling. I know Jonah is who he

is for a reason. He is the sweetest most creative kid i have.

My food for though!
