[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 155164"] I'm not opposed to keeping them home if you know it's just going to end in disaster. Just beware that he might try to use that so you'll have to come up with some firm standards in your mind of when those days can be used. As far as the talking smack....I've seen both sides of this. I've seen my son talk smack when he was younger and I worried, but he was pretty much just venting. At the time I worried a lot that he was going to act out on it and we had a lot of discussions, but to my knowledge he didn't. And I've seen other kids do it and you can tell by the look in their eye, their body language, etc that they have a lot of rage inside. Couple that with impulse control issues and you have a ticking time bomb. If medications help HIM, I'd seriously reconsider it. Therapy might be good, too, to help him learn coping techniques for the anger and impulse control. [/QUOTE]
