[QUOTE="allhaileris, post: 553651, member: 5663"] Threatening to kill her is a big flag for me. Figuring out what's really going on is needed asap so your wife doesn't get really hurt, or one of your other children, your pets, friends, etc. My daughter would rage and the only thing I could do was contain her to her room (holding the door closed, sitting in front of it) or to do a giant hug to her, sit her between me, facing out and wrap my arms and legs around her until she calmed (which usually meant crying). I know that there are certain ways one can hold a raging child that is safe, there should be something online with some details. I could never punish her for those moments, it's not like she was being bad to just be bad. She was being aggressive because something triggered it that she couldn't control. My husband fought the medication for a couple years, and in that time things got way worse. The medication has been beyond helpful. There are a lot of options out there. For her she just couldn't help it. No matter how much she wanted to be good, it was too hard for her brain. Now she's able to concentrate better, feels better about herself, does better in school, it's like a whole new child. [/QUOTE]
