[QUOTE="TiredSoul, post: 609289, member: 3930"] Things are so chaotic around here. difficult child has to be watched every second. If I go in the other room he scares, hits, threatens, bothers, etc his little brother. Every. Single. Time. Seriously - I cannot go to the bathroom or take a shower. The aggression is getting worse. I don't know how to get him to stop. His answer is always something like "I didn't mean to", "I didn't try to", "I didn't do it". It's like he will be mad about something and reach over and smack his brother. I fly off the handle and scream and tell him over and over he CANNOT do that, but it doesn't stop. From what I gather - the problem is school. difficult child HATES school. Absolutely hates it. I try to ask him questions about what he dislikes and I tell him I will help him if he will just let me know - but he can't tell me. When we 'go after' him in the middle of him hurting his brother - he will run away, knock things over, make a complete disaster, flip us off, and his swearing is NON STOP. Seriously - ALL OF THIS BECAUSE HE HATES SCHOOL? I don't know what to do. I am depressed. All I want to do is stay in bed and watch TV. I feel like I cannot cope. I am stressed to the max physically and mentally. When it all gets to be too much - my husband will snap. That usually results in me coming to difficult child's defense, then me and husband arguing - and then husband leaving. I never get a break. And really what good does it do, when I'd just have to come back to all of this chaos. It is all too much. Yesterday, difficult child told easy child if he didn't eat all of his waffle - he would stab him in the back at school. Then easy child didn't want to go to school. :( I need ideas. [/QUOTE]
