DS 6yrs aggressive outbursts since he was 3yrs have become increasingly more aggressive. Have tried behaviour charts, rewards and making sure he gets enough exercise and quality time. Have just started reading a book on the explosive child which describes some children as having a learning disability when it comes to handling frustration and change. Instead of labelling it advices parents to use the Plan B approach which teaches a child how to handle frustration. Wondered if anyone else has used this approach and how effective it was. My son seems so unhappy during these episodes has even said he wants to kill himself which is exptremely upsetting for us all, just want him to be happy!
