[QUOTE="Malika, post: 493673, member: 11227"] The thing is... and I know you understand this... we have an urgent need to work with/on J's inability to tolerate frustration and his intense anger at times... Today he was really, really angry, explosive, and I know that it was not just about the issue in hand. This anger will ruin his life if it is not harnessed and channelled. Getting punitive with him fuels the anger and makes the skills he needs slip ever further away. I need to model the behaviour I want him to have, which is a very big challenge for me too. I just can't parent/discipline him like a "normal" child. Most people don't understand that, but I really don't worry about them any more. This is the road less travelled... [/QUOTE]
