Hi Sarahsweets,

I will definitely explore the resources you suggested, thank you so much for following up. The more I read, the more I learn and, without the help of you and other Psych Central contributors, it would be so much more difficult for us to educate ourselves. It is painful to watch a child struggle and not knowing what to say and when to say it in way that does not make things worse, and this is one more reason I am grateful I found this website and that people are trying to help.
