I am at the end of my tether with ds12.
His rudeness and constant arguing with me and dh has got us all at each tohers throats. DS6 is joiing in for good measure to get his fair share of attention; they are both driving me mad; today I could have cheerfully left the house and not come back. Have crawled upstairs and left dh to it now as I am so angry it is making matters worse.
Why can't an otherwise normal intelligent child understand how his behaviour is affecting the family? NOw when he is challenged about anything he says that he will kill himself. I think he is saying this for effect but I can't be sure. Not sure where to turn next. He's like Jekyll and Hyde.
