He's ten.
Today he cut up his sister's magazine because she said something to annoy him.
Last night he tore up a sign she made for her door because she said something unkind to ds2.
Today he told me my breath smells so bad his ears have gone numb when I asked him to pick up his coat.
He teaches ds3 obscenities like sticking up two fingers. Ds3 is 2 years old.
He throws toys in anger. Pens that shatter against walls leaving ink splatters.
He deliberately will keep the whole family waiting for 15+ minutes whilst he doesn't get dressed, blows his nose or looks for a book he 'needs'.
We are not soft touches as parents. Nothing works to improve his behaviour.
He had had long rages since he was two. They are fewer now but his acts of cold spite and anger are very upsetting.
I look forward to when he's left home. Nobody can help. He's on the waiting list for MIND who apparently are taking over some of CAMHS work. To reduce their waiting lists.
He's an angel at school. Not at all popular but academically very able.
It's just always so very unpleasant if we need him to do something. Unless we just leave him to watch telly for hours or play on his tablet.
Does anyone else have this kind of behaviour in their docs?
