Hi Im a mom two two boys that thank goodness with my family history have turned out pretty good. But my sister has three kids that are just giving her hell! I wish I could help but I feel like my hands are tied sometimes. So I was hoping that if there were other moms out there going through what my sister is going through maybe I can lend her a more understanding helping hand.
So she has a 7year old boy who is the middle child that is just a mess. He is on so much medication for mood disorders, ADHD, anti-psychotic medication for controling his impulses that he dosen't know wether he is coming or going sometimes. They had to put him back in first grade a few weeks ago. And today they doubled his medications.
Im frustrated because nobody is talking to him about these problems everyone talks around him. His therapist and psychologist dont even talk to him they talk to his mom. He dosent do well in groups he gets pretty violent and upset.
Its seems all they do is throw more medications at him without trying to solve problems. They say its not neurological but psychological. I want to help but I dont know how. Is there a way to help kids like this?
He does great with me I can talk him down when hes upset and he listens to do activities. He can sit still with me and solve problems. But I have two boys and hopefully one on the way. I feel an obligation to him but also to my growing family.
Its long Im sorry thanks for any advice in advance.
