A bit concerned is under statement of the year.
Bit of background, she's come out with corkers like that before and we've tried, don't be daft come lets get you off to school type ignoring it in case it was attention seeking.
At school she told other 7 year olds last year she was going to kill herself with a knife and caused all hell to break loose.
She has actually gone to my kitchen draws and taken out a knife causing my other kids to scream blue murder with fear.
This morning she came out with this because DH told her to hurry up getting dressed, not in a gruff voice just chivying her along like he did with the others.
She seems to get little pleasure from anything, has had drama classes, horse riding, piano, brownies etc she just cannot be arsed with any of it.
I have booked an appointment with the GP, we've exhausted the schools options I feel. I've sat and cried in the heads office because she has so few friends and ailienates herself from the other children.
Has anybody else been through this and had a positive outcome ?
Sometimes she seems really happy, watching tv, reading and drawing and then times she's so angry and self harms (in punching her own face). It terrifies the younger ones and frankly me too.
