[QUOTE="totoro, post: 140631, member: 3155"] Hi and welcome!!! Sorry you have found your way here... I would like to say that I have seen, especially in boys, behavior like this. I think jealousy and possessiveness can be "normal" if the child needs something or is lacking something. OR finds that he can get his way by doing these things. My Daughter was a very aggressive youngster. Hers was because of her issues, but some kids are aggressive and need behavior modifications and parenting mods. I would recommend the book "The Explosive Child" by: Ross Greene. Does he have any other issues? Does your family have a history of issues... say like Mental Illness or Pervasive Developmental Issues? Addiction, anything... Before we considered anything wrong with my 6yo we changed our home life drastically. Meaning we looked at ourselves, our parenting styles, how she reacted etc. We spent years adapting our lives and ourselves to help modify her behaviours. Setting extreme limits due to his behaviours. Sticking by your word, setting a schedule, time outs. Not engaging the child, say what you want and do not argue... A lot of this is covered in the Explosive Child, Love and Logic is another good book. Welcome and others will come along with suggestions!!! I have also found that spanking willful children does not do much in the way of helping with the issues. It usually just makes them more defiant! [/QUOTE]
