[QUOTE="Fran, post: 190336, member: 3"] Hello and welcome. It sounds like you have done a great job getting him evaluated and treatment started. Parenting our kids is a learning process. They don't react to parenting in the same way in many situations. It seems to be trial and error. I understand that this behavior is sending you over the edge. It does seem that our kids find that one behavior that triggers us into despair. For me, it was hygiene(and still is) I try to not let it be such a hot button but it does bother me. I agree that you have a responsibility to protect the kitten who can not protect itself. Keeping it out of your son's reach is important in whatever way you go about doing it. You also have a responsibility to help your son function in a world of creatures who are weaker than himself. I would investigate the strattera as Sara suggested if this is a relatively new behavior. If this is a pattern then you need some professional help with behavior modification and consequences for inaappropriate and cruel behavior. You want to help him get a handle on this as quickly as possible. When he is 16 and bigger than all of you, if he doesn't understand hurt and pain you and your other son will have a real concern. Hang in there you aren't alone. [/QUOTE]
