[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 10990, member: 3388"] I'm so sorry you are having such a hard time. I understand how hard it is when two difficult children act out at the same time. I agree with Susie that he probably needs another psychiatric evaluation. Your difficult child sounds similar to my difficult child 1. difficult child 1 was also failing subjects in school, refusing to do anything I asked him, getting up in the middle of the night to use the internet, and letting me know that he was going to do whatever he wanted to do and there was no way I could stop him. He was also violent. Finally, he spent a week in a psychiatric hospital and was thoroughly evaluated. When he was released, he spent three weeks in a partial hospitalization program. He slept at home and spent the day in outpatient therapy. At the end of the three week period, he was given a new diagnosis - Aspbergers and Bipolar. It was heartbreaking for me but at least we now had the information we needed to help him and get our family life back in some sort of order. As Linda said, there comes a point when you have to stop the cycle of chaos in your home. I'm not saying that your son has the same disorders that mine does. I just think that you need to have him evaluated asap. Hang in there. I know how hard it is. Please take care of yourself. Hugs WFEN [/QUOTE]
