[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 79127"] Actually, I think it's a positive that he realizes what he's frustrated at and directing his frustration at that specifically. If that makes any sense. So many of our difficult child's become frustrated and take it out on anything and anyone around him and we have no idea what set them off and, often, they can't articulate it either. That said, my difficult child does the same thing and she's 12. I've explained a hundred thousand times that a folder (or whatever) simply cannot be 'stupid' and try to redirect her to a more positive way to deal with her frustration. Sometimes just stopping for a moment and returning to it is all it takes. Collaborate with him to find another way to achieve what he wants that may get him there with less frustration. It does sound like your difficult child has a low frustration threshhold. I feel your pain. [/QUOTE]
