Ok so this may sound a bit ott but I don't know what to do. I have 3 children dd10 ds8 and ds5.
My middle son is really worrying me he can be really sweet, he loves animals and is generally very quiet and not much of a mixer but there is another side to him that really scares me. He has the worst temper I've ever seen in anyone and I don't know what to do. He goes from being done to flying off the rails over something as little as leaving his tie at school. Even stupid little things like today when he had to walk across the road in the rain to get to a car park. He just goes absolutely crazy and I don't mean just a little tantrum I mean proper violent towards his siblings and grabbing at me. It's like he's not even there as there is no talking to him he's just in his own world screaming and shouting. When he gets like it I take his toys away and explain when he's calmed down that this is not how we act ect. Which usually results in him going nuts again threatening that if I don't give his things back he will smash things or kill his siblings. I don't even know where he gets these ideas from. I've tried to get help but as he behaves at school (usually walks out and goes nuts on the way home if he's had a bad day) they say it's just me and I don't know what to do. As I said the rest of the time he's lovely and helpful ect. The only other problem we have is he still wets himself even in the day we are trying to get help with it but the doctors don't seem to listen and keep sending us to night wetting specialists who then send us back to the Dr as that's not what they deal with.
I really don't know what to do about it. I feel as though I've failed him as a parent and it'd horrible. I'm also scared as he gets bigger I'm not going to be able to cope with these rages. I really don't know what to do.
