Ncd for this as its so distressing.
my child has terrible behaviour problems.
child is 14. had problems since birth, has a number of disabilities, father (not around) was violent (is serving a long sentence in jail) so child has some dna traits.plus father was very abusive to both of us.
child bought up by me but not a badly brought up child.brought up in a solid fair Christian household.
but
1- cant seem to forget the abuse as a baby. in fact memories sharper as child is growing up.
2- teenage hormones.
3- other mental disabilities and learning difficulties (will not disclose other problems as may out me, suffice to say they are mainly mental problems).
is now home taught as schools could/would not cope with violent behaviour.
CAMHS and other services completely useless and will not help with child-anger management and learning to cope with the outbursts.theyve all dismissed child and not given any other options.
child is like Jeckyl and Hide, one minute sweet as a nut and the next.....
is punching and hitting me, half an hour ago kicked me in the stomach. outbursts just happen, no triggers sometimes.
child has been sent to room to calm down but I cant think of any other stratergies.
called police once after a beating from child, they said does it happen often? what can I say?
child is well brought up, not a badly dragged up thug/thugette (will not disclose gender) it is their medical condition mainly that makes them violent.
child does not watch anything innapropriate on tv/movies, does not listen to anything innapropriate, nothing remotely scary/violent playstation games, nothing.
Im scared child will really injure me as they get older, its bad enough now and no one will help. got no other family.
police said if it happens again either a young offenders place (child is NOT an offender) or a mental hospital.
cant bear the prospect of that, I think it would make child worse.

Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
