DS (13) is already showing poor behaviour after just two days of missed activities. He usually has a lot of physical activity which keeps him on track. It's all closed down now for months. He always goes to bed at 9 but has now started refusing to leave his phone downstairs and was verbally aggressive last night. Today's he's been bouncing a soft ball around downstairs, despite being told many times it's only for his bedroom, as we have glass light fittings etc . He just carried on. He seems physically agitated. I've also tried to chat to him about keeping school work going until September and he really didnt grasp the concept. No interest at all. He has a learning support assistant with him in all his lessons and does homework in school.
Going forward, I'm concerned for his safely as he sometimes storms off. My husband is working from home and has got to work permanent nights because it's impossible to concentrate when ds is awake. Unpredictable behaviour and vocalising a lot , talking out loud and shreiking noises.
We took away his playstation last summer as his behaviour with it was shocking . He's now started to demand it back as his friends are all on theirs. He absolutely cannot have it back because he got so aggressive on it. He threatened us with knives, pushed me to the floor, screaming etc. He is constantly pushing against limits. I'm trying to see how we can survive until September
