[QUOTE="Ltlredhen, post: 6891, member: 2123"] Hi and welcome, As Janet said, the board will probably be slow for a day or so but you are definately not alone. We have all been there done that with one of these kids. Probably nothing you could say would surprise any of us, lol. I would recommend you get a copy of "The Explosive Child" by Ross W. Greene, PhD. As you have already learned by trial and error, the normal way of parenting does not work on one of our difficult children. This book is invaluable on ways to deal with difficult kids. When you get the chance it would be helpful if you could do a signature profile such as I have at the bottom of my post. This will help us not to ask the same questions over and over to you as we get to know you and your son. Go to the FAQ section of the board and there are directions on how to do this. Here are a few questions for you if you feel comfortable answering them. 1. Is there a family history of mental problems such as bipolar, depression? Any type of addictive behavior? 2. Did your son progress through childhood stages on time? Any delays with speech or motor skills? We're just moms but maybe one of us will have some suggestions that will help you on your journey. Hang in there, Donna [/QUOTE]
