[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 403385, member: 1631"] Welcome Charmwood, Glad you found us although sorry you needed to. It would help to know if he has a diagnosis from his psychiatrist. I do understand how frustrating this can be. My easy child/difficult child is very similar. She is 17 and very bright. She could succeed in whatever she would put her mind to but she is also lazy, defiant, talks back, and won't do much, if any, homework. She is also very hateful to her younger brother (who has caused her a lot of grief). We have her see a therapist and she sees a psychiatrist. She takes anti-depressants. Not much has helped her. She had a chance had a full paid scholarship and lost it. As a parent it is so hard to watch this. I'm slowly (and not happily) coming to the conclusion that she is going to have to learn the hard way. I wish I could offer more advice but know that you are not alone. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
