[QUOTE="enzo, post: 523195, member: 13268"] My son, now 16, was also high energy, oppositional, but also affectionate and sweet, since day 1, and still is..I do think some of our difficult child's are "wired" the way they are from birth, and you may be recognizing this with your son. It took us many years to figure him out..What we've realized is that he feels emotions very intensely. Sadness comes out as anger, and happiness is pure love. Been a long time since I've had a 5 year old, but you may want to see if you can get someone to start working with him on skills for "staying calm" when starting to get wound up. Maybe thats cognitive behavior modification? [/QUOTE]
