I popped over to check your thread -- in a way, it feels kinda wierd being out of the mlc section, like I am in a different building all together! Isn't it great how there are great people all over this bb? !!!!
Just a couple of observations, but only from my perspective. Try to stop letting what he does or says bother you. You can not control him, but you can control how you react to him. I can give you an example from my sit. A couple months ago h was over helping get the kids to bed. He was very insistant with me that I make sure they brush their teeth before they go to bed! I was furious inside, since I was thinking to myself "Geez, I have been looking after them 24/7 and you try to come over here and tell me how to be a better parent -- darn you, be a parent and help out!!!!" but what I said was "You're right, I have to try to make sure they brush their teeth." I know that this is important, and the fact is it should happen (it doesn't always, because sometimes I am too tired to make it happen!). Then I come here to vent!!!! MLC is a journey he makes -- yeah, it can be a long time, but the reality is you have no control over how long it takes him to get through it. You can only watch him make choices and you can only try not to get on the roller coaster with him. It is very, very hard!
I'm sorry to hear that you felt frustrated over in the mlc forum. Some times it is very depressing over there! But just as here, there are some great people there and I have learned alot. However, stay where you feel supported! I will try to jump over here more -- sorry for the short post today -- our students are having a sports day and I have to run away to help out. I know you also posted on my thread, and I will try to answer your question a bit later!!!!
I'm rooting for you! And thanks for your support to me, also!
