Hi
Please share with me your experiences of anger or ODD in your children.
I have a 6 year old ds and am feeling like a failure with him. For a long time now he has had terrible anger outbursts and can be both physically and verbally nasty with them. Constantly excuses his behaviours by blaming those around him.
Am struggling as this has been constant this week every evening for 1-3 hours per night. The slightest and smallest thing can trigger and nothing I do can calm the situation.
At school no real concerns he can have his 'silly head' on but teacher advises that he is fine with his behaviour no more worse than any other 6yo boy.
His anger is aimed primarily at me and on occasion his sister.
Have separated from dad earlier this year which was a subtle emotional abusive marriage, ds behaviour has been like this for approx 2 years but is escalating.
Please share any experience or techniques of dealing with as I am emotionally drained and really do not know what to do, no approach is working and I've tried what feels like 100's.
