[quote=Anonymous]3rd grade? If so it can be much harder at school. Academics go up and friends start to mature and are less tolerant about everything. Some are downright mean (thanks, parents!). In addition to the parent training and other things recommended above, I would urge you to spend time observing at school. Your post makes me wonder if something at school is triggering his unhappiness or anxiety which is spilling over to home. There may be a bully bothering him or maybe a teacher who is negative, or maybe it's just that his old friends have grown apart from him and he doesn't know what to do. It could be the stress of academics. If he did really well earlier and was coasting by maybe it's adjusting the challenge. What I see from your description is a child who wants to control things maybe because some things in his world are out of control. [/quote]
