Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 This board has turned into nothing near a support group for PARENTS of BP's...Most everyone here has been encouraging to , and still are I personally had hoped to get insight on raising a child with BPD traits. How to help him before he gets to be BPD, how to cope with the fact that his Mother whom he lives with does nothing to help only hinder! Dealing with my husbands bpdness I get support on other groups and in therapy. As I live with an adult with BPD my goal is to learn how not to enable him in his behaviors and how not to become enmeshed in it so deep that I lose me. I am not going to enable another on a group either! , if you ever feel the need please feel free to write to me personally via email. And please continue to just work on you and forget the name BPD and its stigma, put all that energy into nursing school instead! Since this board is not about parenting, I will be unsubscribing.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 No, this site is supposedly about PARENTS of bp loved ones. Sure, may have a bp kid, but she's too busy talking about HERSELF and her personal bp issues to share much about her bp kid. This is NOT a site for bps, and IMHO, bps who are obviously still dealing with bp issues should find a forum more suited to their needs.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Kelley-- I feel the same way as you do. This board seems to have gotten way off track! Other than a few posts yesterday, this board hasn't addressed parenting issues of bps in quite some time. I have enough to do dealing with my bp dtr than to have to listen to bp ranting and raving on this site as well. > This board has turned into nothing near a support group for PARENTS of BP's...Most everyone here has been encouraging to , and still are > > I personally had hoped to get insight on raising a child with BPD traits.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 I am trying to give parents an insight to the BPD's mind...and that helps. Nobody is ranting or raving, just opinions....but half of the battle is understanding where your BPD child is coming from katiehines57 wrote: Kelley-- I feel the same way as you do.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 You know, I can deal with my daughter better understanding BPD and her actions, so I was trying to give ya'll some insight...and it is not about me....I have to watch my daughter go through every day, what I went through, and it helps me to have to deal with her, using my experience...when she screams at me, " i hate you " , I know what she is actually saying...she is saying love me even though I said that....show me you love me...that is why I am giving insight to the BPD mind and actions.... , you sound like you got a little resentment going on there.....I answer questions that I am asked and I am honest, so to help other people with their children and why their children to the things they do... katiehines57 wrote: No, this site is supposedly about PARENTS of bp loved ones.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Thank you, that is why I am so open and honest, to give parents of BPD's who aren't BPD, an insight to a BPD's mind, it can help a parent understand a lot that is going on in their BPD child's mind and behavior... cascorsam@... wrote: Your posts have helped me to understand tremendously.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Kelley, How are you enabling me, you aren't, nobody is, I am learning and growing and using my past experiences to give insight to a BPD's mind. That is not encouraging my " disorder " , nobody has enabled me in years, and if you were enabling me I would tell you to stop!
