So my 9 year old has got a stinking attitude as of late. I've tried everything to get to the bottom of it but have no solution. When ever he's naughty we take his electronics away and then he starts with a trail of verbal abuse like saying he hopes I die and I'm a nasty mother and he doesn't want to like here. This is only when we take his electronics away. He doesn't have them all day everyday. Mon - Thurs he doesn't have it at all because of school. I let him on it for an hour before bed on a fri. I just don't know what to do with him. He walks around the house like a teenager and kicks off about silly little things. Like this morning I asked him nicely to change his trousers as they were too big and he went on to his room shouting and banging his drawers and stomping around. He's even worse when he comes back from being with his dad. I'm just at a loose end.
