[QUOTE="Bean, post: 327431, member: 8620"] OK, that paints a wee bit different picture. :) I think boys, especially, can sometimes be a bit more disconnected and not realize that their "pranks" sometimes carry heavy consequences. Part of that might just be defiance. Like, he understands that it is [I]wrong[/I] but he doesn't agree that it is "as wrong" as it is made out to be. So it might be a combination of defiance as well. Kind of his way for thumbing his nose at authority and asserting himself. Unfortunately, as many of us know - Difficult Child tend to assert themselves in ways that aren't as socially acceptable. Heck, even PCs make mistakes not realizing the larger picture. But the rages, drug use, running away and impulse stuff is an issue, obviously (sounds like my Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD)!!!) How long has it been going on for you? [/QUOTE]
