[QUOTE="2128, post: 148729, member: 4344"] hi, haven't posted in a while. last time i did, my 10 yo was giving me a fit with his anger. things have been better since then as far as anger goes, but now there is a new twist. he's done well in school all year up until the last month or so. grades started dropping, conduct got worse (threatened with suspension once), destroying things that didn't belong to him. and while i'm talking to him about these things, he drops another bomb--"i don't care about anyone but me". at first, i thought he was just saying this so i would leave him alone. but after a homemade test that i tried, i believe my suspicions are confirmed that he doesn't care. i was upset about it for a while and have gotten over it. he says that he hates being around any of the rest of the family. you may say it's wrong, but i told him that if it were that bad, he was welcome to pack his things and find another place to live. i've put up with about all i can. so can someone give me an opinion or some advice? he knows that he is loved and taken care of. is this just age talking or is there something deeper that i'm not seeing? thanks [/QUOTE]
