Advice for a troubled mom of a 9 year elderly...?
I have a 9 year old who is the most incorrigible child I've ever known. He starts fires, steals, lies, and is purely in general out of control. I enjoy had him in therapy for years, I've tried medication, and every suggestion I could think of.
My house is pretty much locked up tight. All knives, medication, electronics, and anything else he shouldn't be playing with are locked up tight along beside my purse (so he doesn't steal my money). The keys get hidden every hours of darkness before I go to bed, but it doesn't stop him. He looks at it as a challenge.
He's be diagnosed with ADHD, Conduct Disorder, and Mood Disorder NOS (not otherwise specified). I need help. I can't gain him to realise that he can't behave this way, and I'm not getting many options anywhere else. I own looked to his therapist, child protective services, police officers, his doctor, and the local probation department. All I get is that they reflect on I'm doing everything I can do.
Does anyone else have any ideas??
Either ignore him emotionally, or boot camp? Source(s): ME! IM 12!
I wouldn't do a Boot Camp, but here are great youth programs out there, such as the Young Marines. You can find one in your local area and help yourself to him to meetings. I guarantee results. Source(s): http://www.youngmarines.com/
Answers: I'm sorry to say this but i don't enjoy much of an answer but i can offer some support.I have a 10 yr. old son next to a very similar situation,we have done all the counselors etc. but one interview I have for you is have you taken him to a psychiatrist? Ours has offered like mad of different solutions and things are seeming to get better. Just remember keep your head up and love him the best you can because others will not be so forgiving.My son is like way as yours he is relntless and if he sees he is pushig buttons he tries to push more. Recently my son had a serious happenstance he almost amputated his arm the doctors thought that this would slow him down but of course it hasnt it has actually raise his level of fearlessness.Best of Luck!!
I just read the other posts and I have to speak where I live boot camp is not an option.
Boot military camp is the best. My cousin was this way until he joined the Navy. Boot military camp and the army are pretty much the same when it comes to teaching some one about respect and responsibility. Its surprising because he use to other say he hated his mother and abused her brother. Now he doesn't do either. For the first time at the initiation of this year he told his mom that he loved her. Joining the Navy has been great for him and since boot camp is similar I have an idea that it would work for your son.
Could you help me with mine?
