![]() I spend a lot of time with him as my older son is 11 nearly 12 and goes to a different school so I spend the time between school pick ups with him and a lot of evenings we are together. I really am at the end of my tether with him and don't know what to do - I have tried behaviour charts, time out, rewards, taking away privaliges etc but nothing seems to make any difference. He kicks and punches me and shouts that he hates me and that I don't love him - if I walk out and go downstairs and try to ignore himhe shouts and shouts at the top of his voice until I go back and see him when he is then abusive towards me. He has lots of friends and everybody thinks he is the model child - only I know different!!! People don't believe me when I say what he is like at home - he is very argumentative, jumping up and down on his bed at bedtime and not lying down, throwing everything around his bedroom with not a care whether he breaks anything or hurts anyone who is in the room. On a day to day basis he is a very loving caring boy who is polite and works hard at school. I have just sat on the sofa in tears reading your post after dealing with my son at bedtime. I have got to the point now where i have done all i can to improve the situation myself with no success, and i can see my yougest son,2, copying behaviour, which is the last thing i want!Īny advice on what to do next would be hugely appreciated, i'm really struggling x He hates the thought of someone else knowing how he behaves at home because he is brilliant at school and never in trouble. Recently i have told him that if we can't sort this out between us then i will have to seek help either from school or our gp. I have tried talking to him when things have calmed down and explained the effect it has on the family and how it makes me feel when he's aggressive, which he can get quite upset about but that doesn't stop it happening again a couple of hours later. I will give him warnings and follow through with threats (like taking away privileges), but this just seems to fuel it and he can't seem to understand that there will be concequences to his actions. It's as if he see's a red mist and has no control over what he's doing. He can be the most loving, polite, intelligent boy but when he is told off or asked to do something, even the smallest things, he gets so angry! He will shout, grit his teeth, growl and become very aggressive to the point of punching and kicking me. My 7 year old some is having some real issues with anger. ![]()
