This notion that I have to be "on" while at home , that I must be perfect and behave all the time or my outside friends get taken away....it's odd. And a bit cruel.

Yes -- this is why I'm not sure the "family gets your best..." thing even goes with GBD; I've just seen it a lot on the boards so it's in my head. I absolutely do not require -- or desire! -- forced cheerfulness or "on" behavior. I'd think that he could do better with a break from home except that a few times he has carried his mood with him to activities. That's why I kept him home, not a "you upset me so you can't go" thing.
I think I'll just push through without keeping him home in the future. The end of the crazy schedule is just a couple weeks away anyway
Thanks!
