Brain activation exercises

Hi all,

Did any of you tried Leaply with their child? This brain activation exercises? I know I have to pay which I simply cannot afford but I am willing to sacrifice and I will ask my mom to spare some £ as I don’t know what to do with my son anymore.
He is 8 (in 3 weeks) and his behaviour its just unacceptable, I am a terrible parent I guess?
he swears, hit his brother, hit me, tantrums all day, screaming, shouting, refusing to sleep, he can’t focus, he can stay still unless is watching tv etc.
For context, he doesn’t have a phone or iPad, limited time at tv and just Netflix, discovery, disney, national geographic.
At school he is amazing, the best manners, kind, sharp, shares, helpful, the most intelligent, etc.
At home its a nightmare. Stilling sweets from pantry etc

went for professional advice (5 times) not on spectrum, no adhd, nothing. He is perfect

please help a desperate and tired mum , his siblings are coping his behaviour which it breaks my heart :(((

thank you X

Spend your £ inviting a behaviour expert to observe at home and offer strategies.
You are not goibg to get him to follow an app are you?
Remove temptation do not keep sweets anywhere.
Ask school to do a home visit?
