[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 220073, member: 2423"] Dawn, I'm sorry for what happened today. It had to be scary for both you and your difficult child alike. This is JMHO, but I think I would hold off on disciplining whatever's going on out of him and instead focus on getting him a proper evaluation with his pediatrician (for substance abuse issues) and a child/adolescent psychiatrist (for emotional issues). Teens don't act like this without an underlying reason. If you don't know of a good adolescent psychiatrist in your area, call your local chapter of NAMI ([URL="http://www.nami.org"]www.nami.org[/URL]) for resources. I hope you'll make that call first thing in the morning. Hugs for your hurting mommy heart. [/QUOTE]
