[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 192450, member: 3626"] I do understand her logic. The less we react, the better chance most have of controlling the rage. I don't know your son but I know that my not reacting would create an even stronger and more destructive rage. For me, the best thing I could do was leave the house. The first time I left, she tore the house apart. She wasn't allowed to leave the house except for school (and I sat outside of her classes to make sure she went) until she cleaned up all of the mess. Anything broken she had to pay for with a garage sale of her stuff. She never destroyed the house again -- just things in her room that weren't all that important to her. It always amazed me that while she truly couldn't control raging, she could control what she did in the rage. Somewhere in her is one of the best survival skills I've ever seen -- anything goes so long as it doesn't truly hurt her. [/QUOTE]
