He really is and I just don't know what to do about it. An example from this morning. We get up quite happily, chat about what to gave for breakfast then I say "I'm off to the loo, have a think about what you want and tell me when I come back". He follows me and says he wants to talk to me. I say "that's fine but just wait until I've finished". He stomps upstairs saying "Idon-t want to talk to you any more".
He came back a few minutes later saying he was going to turn the radio off and when asked why he said because it would upset me. I asked why he wanted to upset me abd he said because I didn't make him breakfast! He's stomped off again now.
This is just one example but the pattern is that something doesn't go EXACTLY the way he wants; he becomes furious with us; he does things to hurt/upset us. He can be set off by things that HE has done which he then blames us for.
We are very gentle, non-shouty parents and would like to stay that way but this us becoming unbearable. We had to leave my parents house yesterday because of his behaviour.
