9 yr old is so naughty.

[rainbowshine1]

My 9 yr old is so naughty, Im sat at work almost in tears because its half term, my mum is looking after him and because he didnt want to go on an errand my mum had to do hes run off. Hes rude, tells me to "shut the fck up" if I send him to his room he refuses to go, if I take him by the arm to take him to his room he calls me "child abusing bich" (Ex / dad taught him this!!)

he has no respect and Im really struggling with him. :(

His school may have contacts with a councillor or Family support worker -ours works wonders with children like your child...there is hope at the end but its very hard. Watch Mr Drews school for "naughty boys" on the tv catch up and you may see yours isn't as bad as you thought and you may learn a few tricks from those parents. It always boils down to consistency and example not easy when you have ex parenting to balance. Be firm, stay strong, don't give up on him because you are his only chance in life.

Take a look at this book.

I wish I could take "parents" like your ex by the neck and shake them until they see sense.
