[QUOTE="ajpiesim, post: 300671, member: 7915"] Our son has always been what I would call "high maintenance" always seeking attention and creating situations that require attention. Recently his behaviour has become much much worse, he is constantly angry when asked to do things or not to do things, he just seems so angry a lot of the time and argues with me and my husband all the time. We only recently got married in June and he is putting such a strain on our relationship that we are also struggling now. My husband gets very angry when our son is outwardly defiant and hitting and kicking out at us and this just exacerbates the situation. Our son has been in a holiday club during the UK summer holidays and today ran out through the fire exit and had the staff chasing around after him, I was called out of work to deal with the situation, when I arrived he sat on the floor and wouldnt move, then took to running off again. We ended up keeping him in a room where he tried getting out of the window and starting throwing things around, I had to call my parents to help me to get him out of there. I dont know my son anymore - he doesnt seem to care who he upsets and what he says to us. He has turned so nasty -his behaviour just seems to be getting worse. I have felt this week I just cant cope anymore. We have arranged for him to see our GP tomorrow to discuss and maybe get a referral and this was the last option for me as I really didnt want him to become labelled with any kind of disorder but I just feel totally defeated. Sorry to waffle, but I feel our family is disintegrating rapidly and I feel so helpless. Thanks for listening. AJ (UK) [/QUOTE]
