[QUOTE="Malika, post: 580266, member: 11227"] I think you make some valuable points, DDD. And you have certainly been there done that. I'm honestly not complaining about the fact that J's behaviour is identified at times as difficult and unacceptable; it is the fact that there is no approach offered other than punishing him and blaming me. Which doesn't help anything. Am I still hoping that somehow J's behaviour is just going to get better as he gets older? Should my priority be the psychological services and help that might exist for J - in which case, moving elsewhere in France is the ONLY solution open to me. And all of a sudden the horrible behaviour has started shooting out all over the place. Picked him up from school at 4.30, we went into town, did some brief shopping, went to buy him riding boots and gloves, swimming goggles - all little extras for him, not unpleasant, he was fine in the shop. Then we went to the playground, he asked to go to McDonalds to the play centre and I said no - cue two year old tantrum and theatrics, refusing to get in the car, screaming, shouting, etc. If this is going to get worse then, yes, I need more concerted help. I really do. Solutions and skill learning, for both of us. I think J does have potential, like all children. And yes, it is all going to go pear-shaped (horribly wrong) if things continue this way.
