Hello, this issue might sound trivial but it upsets me a great deal.
My son (7), who has ADHD, can be very oppositional at times, especially when being told to stop gaming. He often shouts, kicks and throws things so the neighbours can hear. Tonight he let himself out the door and rode his bike off and out of the street. On his way back past me, I lifted him off his bike so he couldn't carry on, as it wasn't safe. This happened in front of a neighbour.
I feel like we're always having issues in front of the neighbours, who all seem to have perfectly behaved children! We're all in very close quarters and I can't stand feeling like everyone is judging us (I feel they think we're bad parents, my son is naughty). Any advice? I actually want to move because of this!
I wouldn't care if it was a one off.
His gaming is now off until Monday!
Any words of wisdom please? X
