I'm really struggling with my son's behaviour. He is about to turn 5. He does not listen to anything he is told, at home, at school, it doesn't matter where he is or who he is with. He will be given instructions and it's like he's listened, he can repeat it back to you, but it hasn't actually sunk in. He has started hitting, spitting, having tantrums, wetting the bed, just not listening to a word anyone says to him. Even his teachers aren't happy with his behaviour and he's having to have time out at school. When I ask him why he's doing these things, he says he doesn't know, or he'll say he done it because someone done something to him first. He also twitches and cannot keep still. He can't stop himself from wriggling. It's like he's fighting with himself to try and stand still or sit still. Even his teachers have picked up on it. The school weren't much help and just said to make a doctor's appointment. He used to be so well behaved and used to be dry at night, suddenly it's all changed and it's like he's a totally different child. I dread picking him up from school cause I know the teachers will have something else to tell me that he's done that day. He knows right from wrong, he can explain it to me but can't actually do it. I'm a mess at the minute. I don't know what to do to help him. It just doesn't seem normal. Nothing about him seems normal
