[QUOTE="mbirdwell75801, post: 617132, member: 17567"] My difficult child is a wonderfully softhearted child who seems to cycle about every 6 weeks. Normally his mean, behavior last for about two weeks then we are OK for a while. He can get violent when confronted but with age the violence has lessened. When he gets in his moods if I say white its black, if I say sit he stands. He will verbally attack his siblings, he will push shove antagonize and its never his fault. For years family has tried to push us to medicate, but it's always been manageable. He does not do well with change and has always been a straight A student with no discipline problems. At home, with family and friends is where his issues present thee worst. He knows he has a problem and will tell you after an outburst how sorry he is and that his anger got the best of him. It is just exhausting. I feel like Ihave to give him 98% of my attention while the others get very little....just have a really bad few weeks. Its not always bad but when it is I feel like I'm back in the army in combat mode....venting is what I'm doing I guess.... [/QUOTE]
