I am at my wits end with my son I don't know what to do anymore.
He's always been a very physical child constantly getting in trouble at school for lashing out at other kids but never hit at home.
His father and I split up in April and 3 weeks later he was introduced to his fathers new girlfriend- way too fast for my liking but not something I had control over.
Last month his father assaulted me in front of him- strangled me, beat me, kicked me etc
Since then my sons been so angry with me. Says he hates me, that he wishes his dad had killed me.
He gets in massive strops over the tiniest things, something he's always done but not to this extent or frequency.
He's only happy if he's having his own way. We went to Disneyland Paris 2 weeks ago and he ran off and got lost all because he didnt want to have lunch.
Social services said they were going to refer him to someone but I'm still waiting to hear.
I've been in tears this morning because he is just awful. Saying I'm a horrible parent, he hates me, I don't do anything with him.
He screams in my face and it's getting to the point where I don't want to be around him.
I have no family near by to help, it's just me and the kids- their dads been told to apply to court for access but he hasn't yet
I don't know how to help my son I just want him to be happy
