[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 78732, member: 3626"] At first, I sat on the other side of the door with earplugs in, Walkman playing, a book in my hands and a rope attached to the doorknob so that she couldn't pull it open. You might check with psychiatrist and see if they would approve you locking him in his room during rages only but be very sure the room is very safe (no lamps he can break, etc.). Her therapist suggested locking her in when I walked in in tears one day. If you can get this in writing from them, you'd be protected from CPS. Make it very clear to your son that this will only happen when he can't control himself and it is to protect him from getting hurt. It is NOT a punishment and it is up to him when he gets out. So, the second a rage stops, the door is opened. If he starts raging again, he goes back in his room until he can once again control himself. Honestly, be grateful your mother in law took your munchkins for the night and go take a hot bath and relax. You deserve it! [/QUOTE]
