[QUOTE="SaraJG, post: 338547, member: 8900"] Hi I am a widowed mother of 4 I have a 10 yr old boy who has some anger issues and more recently has tried some "attention grabbing" behaviour. Next is my 7 yr old boy who has been diagnosed O.D.D I spend a lot of time in apointments trying to find ways to deal with his outbursts My 5 yr old wants everyone to get along and bears the brunt of his brothers tempers .. not usually physically but emotionally his needs are very high always needing reassurance that he is loved Then my baby girl is 2 she doesn't sleep anymore only from 10pm til 4 am I get very little sleep and am finding that I need a way to talk to others that have similar difficulties . I do belong to coping groups in the town I live but I find that the more information i can amass the better I feel and the calmer I am when dealing with the busy day to day I lead Hoping to meet new people who maybe cope with the difficulties that I do. Any and all Information is good . I find that the older my 7 yr old gets the worse it can get because now the outbursts are not just written off as tantrums. I have been coping with his behaviour since he was born. No one ever believed me that something was wrong till he started school. Now they have no way to not listen. I have neccessary daily meetings with the behaviour team at his school. I do find that at home his behaviour is more controlled but our home is less structured than school and with a routine to follow the tantrums are shorter and less extensive. I have read the Explosive Child and I do like the Plan B aspects but find them difficult to enforce at times of rush. ...which is usually when I need them most of course. I am currently reading Lost at School and am wondering if anyone has found any other research that may be of assistance Thank you for reading all this and possibly helping me understand how to better deal with my wonderful children [/QUOTE]
