Hi jdd

Thanks for that. I appreciate you. I will have a coffee in a minute and text H to arrange that afternoon with the kids. I just couldn't right then because of all the screaming.

DD4 carried on screaming for at least an hour after he left until I was so upset I screamed back at her.

Then she climbed into my huge king-sized bed and fell asleep. I went in there and found her asleep in the middle of these big pillows and then I felt guilty for getting upset.

She's now eating her dinner (very late - this is normally her bedtime) as I type this.

The kitchen's tiny, only room enough for 1 chair at this little table so we normally eat off our laps in the living room, but I had mine earlier while she was asleep. To be honest, I was so stressed I wanted to eat on my own.

Thanks though, parenting when you have M problems is even harder!

Jo.
