I really am the end of my tether with DS1. He is 9 in March and has the temper and attitude of a teenager. I just don't know what to do, i find myself getting really really angry with him 90% of the time,a nd feel as though DH and I are always having a go at him. It's all because of the way he goes on though. He argues about everything i ask him to do. He whinges and moans about everything. He winds up my mindees to the point where they sometimes cry. He tried to push me off the computer chair one night because i wouldn't let him play on the PC, he throws things in temper - one night he swiped everything off the work surface in the kitchen in a temper about something. He also cries a lot , he got a carpet burn on his knee, caused by fighting with his brother, and screamed liek a banshee about it for an hour! A whole hour of him going on and on in very high decibels, and limping around saying he can't walk. he gets very nervous and says his tummy is sore, and he cries and carries on every morning, about school, once he gets there he is fine and the teachers says he is very good in class, does all his work and is very popular.
I really could do with soke help on dealing with though, I feel like a tightly wound elastic band at the minute
