My youngest ds is so difficult sometimes that I am despairing of what else I can do. For example, I was just on the phone to my sister and ds couldn't pump his bike tyre up properly, I told him I would help when I had stopped talking - it was only a short call. He then shouts at the top of his voice F off, storms upstairs and kicks his bedroom door. This sort of thing happens often. He swears a lot and just doesn't seem to be able to control his temper. Afterwards he says he is sorry and sometimes gets upset but I am not taken in by that anymore as it always happens again. I have tried everything i can think of, no pocket money, early to bed, sent up to bedroom, not allowed out with friends, but nothing takes effect. His brother is so calm and well behaved, total opposite. Ds is so good at school, polite and extemely bright his report said. At home though he reckons his life is Crp, and boring. We have just had 2 weeks in Ibiza and if we had let him he would have ruined it because he was so difficult. On the plus side, when he is good he is really good, very loving. He is really getting me down now though. He seems to think he can say what he wants, say hes sorry and thats it. I can't get him to realise that his behavour is just not acceptable inthe first place. Hasa anyone been through this and got any ideas? All advice gratefully received.
