Annoyed with my brother and his girlfriend

I'm having behaviour issues with my son at the moment. He swears, kicks, hits and spits at us. It's hard to deal with but I'm trying to sort that out with CAMHS. Today though my brother and his girlfriend were round and he swore at them. I told my son to stop but he didn't. My son then blurted out the dreaded C word Sad my brother took my son upstairs and put a little bit of soap in his mouth. Am I right to be annoyed that he done this! I dont believe in putting soap in a child's mouth! My mum done it to me and I swore I would never do that to my own children! My brother did this more then once and I felt awful for my son. I did try and stop it but my brother said he will never learn and made me feel like I had no control. Now I'm very upset and feel awful and sick that this happened. What do I say to my brother?

Purple I have been critical on this thread because I wanted you to get cross with the situation, not your son, and get some help. You don't have to do this without professional support. Google the words "Early Help" - and add your local authority name e.g., "Early Help Sheffield" and get in touch. Or ask the welfare support officer at school for a referral.
