I currently have 2 FC (2 and 4 )and 1 BC (5), the FC's have been with me 1 year,
But the eldest FC has reverted to vicious moods, about 10-15 screeching tempers a day, during this time he throws stuff and hits out. We all have bruises to back this up, he seems to aim for the other little people in the household.
This has been going on 1 month(seemed to start around the time we returned from holiday with them, when they had double the amount of contact for 2 weeks to make up for the lack of contact during the holiday).
This has had a disturbing effect on my BC, she now leaves the house on any sign of a temper. (only to nextdoor).
I am torn as this is tearing me apart, between my D and the FC.
I have asked for outside help for the FC with the possibility of his moving on.
The SW has not been too supportive of getting outside help previously, (his has been requested for the past 9 months)
We have have remarkable results with the LO and up until now also with the Eldest FC.
I understand that there is a lot for the eldest FC to cope with, as he had been told he may not be going home to BP, (about 10 weeks ago)
The plan is permanency.
Am I right to be thinking of this, I feel I am letting him down. :(
