[QUOTE="ROE, post: 56092, member: 2276"] I agree with what the others are saying. First off, I would discuss this behavior with the p.doctor a.s.a.p. I agree with Kris, violent behavior, provoked or unprovoked, has got to be addressed. Safety is always a priority. Kris is right that in the near future people will stop making allowances for your difficult child. I've BT. My difficult child was very aggressive at 10-11, usually in the home towards family members. But I always feared that he would lose it and act out on another child. As a young child, this never happened. The t.docs and the p.docs All told me that there should be a consequence for his behavior. My difficult child did participate in some intensive therapy for anger management. P.doctor also added a medication that difficult child took for several years. Although my difficult child's aggressive behavior greatly improved, his impulsiveness got him into trouble in middle school. One time a kid hit him with a piece of candy on the bus, difficult child punched him in the face. difficult child was remorseful afterward, but it didn't stop the parents from going to the police to file a complaint (nothing came of it)and to the school to raise hell. This is just one example of many. My difficult child is in high school now. He has made great strides in overcoming his aggressive tendencies and rarely has an incident. However, this past school year he was provoked into a fight during school. They almost cuffed him and arrested him. Again difficult child was remorseful, but he still got suspended and he got a fine for disorderly conduct (same as the instigator). There is zero tolerance for aggressive behavior and that is the way it should be. Your difficult child has expressed his inability to control himself. I understand this, having dealt with my own difficult child's struggles. You need to help him find that control, whether it's through medication or therapy or both. Good luck. I hope things get better for you soon. [/QUOTE]
