[QUOTE="slsh, post: 105738, member: 8"] Hi Chris! Another (very strong) vote for requesting an FBA and BIP (with emphasis on positive behavioral interventions as opposed to "punishments") at school for your son. I also have to highly recommend The Explosive Child and I am not a self-help book kind of person. First time I read it, I laughed out loud (and I sure wasn't laughing much in those days [img]:wink:[/img] ) because he just so gets our challenging kids. At the time, I was sure I had the only "explosive child". Aside from really good practical advice about how to prioritize what behaviors to address *now* and what behaviors you might want to let slide while you address the really important ones, it's also just so comforting to know that there really are other kids out there who behave and think similarly to your son. Do remember to take care of yourself too. Having a difficult child can be a marathon. I know it sometimes seems too hard/time consuming/inconvenient to do self-care but I think it's a big part of being a successful parent and advocate for your child. Moms need TLC too. Glad you came out to say "hi". Hang in there! [/QUOTE]
