I have Been posting quite a bit about ds who's 16 and has been aggressive violent towards me. And towards dd but on a lower scale. Been wutkong with professionals etc.
So ds is still hard work. But is better compared to what he was. There is still some work to do. He's not really engaging with family practitioner. But nothing I can do to be honest. As its between them 2.
Sw is in contact roughly every 3 weeks or so last time we had a video call meeting. She was quite supportive to me as a parent and tried to support me on putting rules in place regarding loud music times ect. We tried to engage DS in this with comprising etc. But he just kept coming back with excuses and putting obstacles in the way. So in the end it was agreed between me and sw that by 8pm music gos off /very low or head phones. With that there has been hiccups here and there but it's been ok on the whole.
My main concern is hes still quite funny towards dd. So I really want to talk to social worker about that.
On a positive note.
Ds went for an interview yesterday. He will do construction work. Maths English. There is an induction day next week then he will start the following week. He said in the interview the people seemed relaxed easy going and he said he feels it will be a much better setting for him than school/college setting.
I'm really really praying that this is a turning point for him. I think it will be fantastic for him. And give him a good focus. And then hopefully have a good knock on effect for his confidence mental health and people /family around him.
