[QUOTE="4timmy, post: 228037, member: 6553"] OH my goodness and bless your heart! I have been through this soooooo many times with my difficult child. He probably started doing this when he was around 8yo and did it mostly at school and then the teachers would call me and tell me about it or just send home notes! I had a teacher last year call me and COMPLAIN TO ME about my difficult child disrupting class to write on the chalk board that he was going to "kill himself"!!!! She sent him to the office where he would be monitored. He's getting better at not doing this, but he will still write things like "I ****" all over his school work. In my difficult child's case, it is a cry for help and it just breaks my heart. smallworld is right. I have read that CD is not typically diagnosed until a much older age. My difficult child has also been diagnosis'd with ADHD/ODD since he was 7 or 8. I'm glad I found this forum, because now I have some alternative ideas for how to figure this all out. In our city we have a facility (non-profit) where there's an emergency # you can call. It's the "when I don't know what to do" line and they will actually have the PD come pick up and keep overnight. I've never had to do this, and I wonder if I ever will. I also wonder how it would effect my difficult child if I actually had to followed through with it. I think it would scare him real bad. Sometimes I take so much and just can't help but cry in front of him (I know, not good), but when this happens, he immediately runs to me and says "mom, don't cry"... "I love you"... "I'm sorry"..... this is what tells me in my heart that he didn't mean what he said... but it still worries me crazy. Sorry to write so much. Good Luck and don't give up!! [/QUOTE]
