Yes you are right, there are ways to learn control but it takes time and maturity. And yes really I thought your statement was mean and insensitive. You can't just throw a statement out there like that without any explanation at all. I took it as a personal attack on me and my son. Highlighting my words telling me I was wrong. That I don't know my own child. Maybe that's not how you meant it, I have no idea, I know nothing about you. But if you don't have bipolar you can research it as much as you want but you still won't be able to understand it completely. You can't truly understand unless you've been there. You can help with your knowledge give us ideas and different strategies to try to help us cope. I don't doubt that you've had success in teaching children to control their responses. My son knows the techniques and strategies to use but there are times when the anger is to strong for him to control or comes to fast for him to be able to think to use what he has been taught. I'm asking you to look again at what you wrote and how you wrote it. I can't see your face only your words.
