Hey all, i am not sure if i posted here before but could use some advice please! I have a fourteen year old Bipolar son, and four other children, yeah i'm the one with two possibly bipolar and another adhder ugh. Anyway i am struggling with the one who is diagnosed. He steals things from home, trades things, doesn't want to listen. Now i have managed to be quite patient and supportive with him in his struggles and steer him down the right paths, but it's getting insane in the home. I am freaking out once again on what to get a child like this for xmas without punishing the other and not killing the pocket for exspenses. We work with a councler dr.s ect. but we are waiting for a new program to help with him but it's an everyday challenge as some as you already don't have to be told and i always get great responses on the boards here! So post away with some great advice for me and my family so i can have even better success with my son!
Love, Monkey
