It's so frustrating when outsiders think we obviously are bad parents and aren't trying to get help, isn't it? My son was in therapy from age eight on and even was in a hospital at twelve. I never stopped looking for help for him, even up to his 20's. He had the advantage of a stay-at-home mom who helped at school and was very involved with all of his activities. Although he was always into gore and blood, nobody else in the family was and we never watched horror movies or talked about violence. He was never spanked.
None of my other kids were in any way violent.
Again, as I often say, walk in MY shoes, then tell me what you'd do...And if you have never raised a child as disturbed as mine, please don't respond to my posts because you could never get it.
