There is always one, one you try and try, but nothing works, behavior charts, traffic lights, stickers, stamps and the always polemical time out, since we’ve tried and tried, we become frustrated and tired at times, maybe it’s the end of the year syndrome but at some point we stop trying, we think maybe the child is just unchangeable, so we give up.

This happens because we don’t see the change, the evolution that has happen, we just focus on the parts of the behavior we feel are the same since the beginning, we feel we haven’t help, that all of our efforts and work have been pointless, but there was, it might be small, it might be unnoticed to us, so we need to take a step back, we need to look at the big picture and realize that not all changes are big and fast, some are small, they take time and patience.

So, I vote that we take a break, we take that step back, think about the start of the year and where we are now, and in that we will see it, we will find the glimpse of the change, what keeps us trying and finding new ways and methods so we can do more than just be there.
