Hi everyone.
May I join in here? This is why I love the social board. I missed much of this on the medical board because I don't take Topamax :)
I have a son turning 7 next month with ADHD. (He is on Ritalin) While I love him dearly I fear my mothering / parenting skills are up the creek. He has suffered dearly because of my depression and GAD and while he has a good home and we teach him sound principles, I often feel I have failed.
My son has the crying habit down to a T. I get so angry with him when he cries for nothing. I have accepted that he is an emotional child but wish I could put a stop to the unnecessary crying. I have responded, I have ignored, I have (of course) done the whole unproductive shouting and screaming thing and I too, have told him over and over again that I may not believe him next time.
I am certain that I will be able to glean some valuable parenting advice from this thread.
