Q:
How do I try to correct aggressive behavior in my six year old with ADHD when he does not get what he wants?
My son is 6 years old and in Kindergarten. He is having some major behavior problems mostly at school but at home also. He was diagnosed with ADHD. He has gotten written up twice for spitting in another child's face, hitting a girl in the face with a book and threatening to cut another child up. He is fine when he gets his own way but if he has to listen to any rules look out! I do not give in to his demands so I don't know where this is coming from. Although his father has some issues when things don't go his way, like screaming yelling and having a fit. His father does not live with us anymore. My son does have a TSS and a mobile therapist and is on medication. I have tried everything and I am at my wits end. My son would show me his fist and tell me I am a bad mommy. He can be good and show love. He is gentle with our pet cat. I asked him why and he said "Onyx likes me". My son also thinks that everyone is staring at him or laughing at him. Any advice???? Help! He was colic, have tubes in his ears and had his tonsils out a year ago.
