Hi can anyone help I have a 10-year old ds(1) who is due to start secondary school in September, and has suddenly started to become very volatile. He is going to a different school to many of his classmates, because he has been previously bullied and the bullies are going to the most popular school. As a consequence the few friends he had (who werent rightened away by bullies) are now looking for friends among those going to other school. ds1 looking forward to new school, but has become very abusive (swearing/ hitting out/ kicking) to me, dh and ds2. Has anyone been thru this and survived? Any tips?
