Trying not to blame him but feel bitter at lack of support from dh, school, family and system. He's disrespectful, ultra defiant and put of control. Not done of the time, ALL the tine! Dh always downplays Angry. Feel like remarkably convenient to blame me/my parenting/:lack of patience etc. Had therapy, tried ads .. At wit's end here, something's got to give.

Can you tell us a bit more about your son Salbertina how old is he, and does he have a diagnosis. I know that with all these damn cuts that lots of vital services for children with SNs are closing down. Has it got worse because of the long summer holiday. So sorry you are feeling so overwhelmed.

He's a tween, had diagnosis a while now, we're overseas in a developing country not on hols so not even that excuse! I just cant cope any more! There's zero support here, only volunteer groups and expensive paeds booked up weeks in advance. School useless and will/can provide nothing. He's constantly in trouble. Lucky that he's not "severe" but moderate (adhd/dyspraxia) , i wonder too about aspergers.
