[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 411113, member: 3419"] Boy, does that sound familiar! Except that it was the pediatrician who said, "That's a boy!" Hey, I don't let boys, girls, dogs, cats, horses or bulls break my furniture. Time for find a new dr. Meanwhile, I agree, read as much as you can on explosive kids, ADHD, etc. You want to figure out his triggers--such as transitions, taking things away from him--and avoid those. on the other hand, you'll have to chose your battles and occasionally set off a trigger to train him to control himself. For one thing, don't try to teach him anything when he's in a rage. Wait until he calms down, and then you'll have a "teachable moment." (You'll see that in a lot of books.) Trying to reason with-a raging child is like reasoning with-an alcoholic when they're drunk. Have you tried any medications? [/QUOTE]
