[QUOTE="Pookybear66, post: 202195, member: 5957"] Ehlena-I am new here too by a couple of weeks. My son is 8 1/2 but does not seem to have as severe problems as you describe. You've already received some very helpful advice. I would ditto the comments about getting a full evaluation of him. I would also acquire the book the Explosive Child. It has helped me see things a bit differently over the past few weeks and things have been for the most part manageable. I would also set up the rules and boundaries. With this though, if possible, I would involve him. I think difficult child's sometimes respond better when they feel they have control over the situation. I don't know if this would work with your child but just a suggestion. Again, welcome and best wishes for the future diagnosis of your son. With answers will come wisdom and vice versa. Hopefully you will get that "aha" moment very soon. [/QUOTE]
