Good grief, how DID it come to this, there seems more here than meets the eye! something must be going on in the background, something been said and an assumption been made. Could you not home school? is that an option? let us know how things go. Enid

Hi, I see you have been given the names for the author, My lad wont talk about anything to me at all , but this book gives you various ways of dealing with different senarios, I have found it invaluable, glad things have calmed down for a bit! Enid

sending you hugs and support, have been there many a time, its so hard to keep calm all the time when they are winding you up, so dont feel guilty, we have all been there, I know I have. Its not easy when you need to watch them 24/7. My advice for now, when things are soo bad is try to jump in first before kids and cats get hurt!!! sounds easy when you write it down, but I know its not, I decided when going through a truly appalling time last year to leave anything thats not a matter of life and death and concentrate on getting through to the end of the day with the same number of kids that I started off with, I kid you not, each night I breathed a huge sigh of relief and poured a large red and though, got through another one, things are miles better now. Have you read the explosive child? I found it really worked for me. keep strong. Enid

Hi Nobby, I noticed that! Was sitting watching with my 10 yr old daughter at the time, it was def a tantrum! I did feel sorry for her though, its also late at night for those kids, its just too much even the 11 yr old boy cried. God knows whats going to happen when she dosnt win tomorrow night!!!!! Enid

Well I know how it is, have been through exactly the same myself, I was going to suggest resperidone but see he has been taken off it, could you ask CAHMS to retry? or have a second opioion?, my own Lad is on resperidone, and I feel it has saved us, we too used to double lock doors/windows and then lock ourselves in another room and come out when he was calm to survey the damage, my lad also didnt/dosnt get consequences, cause and effect etc. There is a brilliant book called "The explosive child" that has been a fantastic help to me, I would really urge you to get a copy, look on amazon, I`m sorry cant give you the author as have just today lent it to a desparate friend!!! It tells you how to deal with situations step by step, using plan A,or B,or C, It sounds complicated but its not and is an easy read,and has a lot to say about consequences!!!! keep strong I know how blumming hard it is. <'> <'> Enid

Blimy, thats just ridiculous, what a interfering woman, perhaps her intentions at the start were good but then she should have let it go, chalk it up to experience and have a nice glass of something this evening! <'> Enid

Hi, wondered how you were getting on, I have had a "child in need" meeting, when my DS was out of control, in a similar state to your daughter, nothing came of it, full of big ideas but no money to back it up. Try to find a school, not much time I know! that you would be happy with and push/fight for it. She needs a theraputic community in my opinion, google that and see what comes up, I had them all on favoutrites but lost them when computor crashed recently. There was something called "options" for young minds, these places are for people like your daughter and she needs the right help not just putting in a boarding school. Glad things are somewhat calmer, keep strong and keep us posted. hugs. Enid
