    • I’m With You

      From TALIETH May 22, 2008

      Thankyou for your kind words and support. Sometimes I feel as if I am living a nightmare without any-one to share it with that truly understands. My mum, dad and siblings blame my parenting when I know I have been the best mum I know how to be.I have even done a parenting course to help me with ways of coping and have read numerous books and articles on the condition. Most days i blame myself and think that maybe I have done something wrong and self reflect every day.All i can basically do is go with what the pdoc says and follow my instincts as his mum. We dont have any problems at school, he is adored by his teacher but his behaviour at home is abhorent. My baby girl whom is 3 has been abused one way or the other from the time she was born, i have to watch my son's every move to protect my daughter, it breaks my heart seeing her upset and it isn't fair that she has to live this way. My nerves are at their wits end and some days i feel like giving up but I cant, I cant desert my son whom needs me so much
