[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid had a huge amount of uncontrollable anger, but never inflicted on me (holes in walls, dents in fridge). There were a lot of programs and therapy but not great results from them, but over time he developed the ability to manage frustration (yes he had MH issues). Didn't push privileges much because his life was so rocky he had few outlets as it was. Redirection helped more and I spent a lot of time with him. Ross Greene was my lifesaver--look him up. He's got important things to say.

I'd be very concerned about the entire situation and the helplessness OP and her husband seem to feel. One risk is continued and increased aggression by either of the boys. Another--which people surprisingly fail to consider--[b]is the link of suicide with aggression in teen boys. [/b]

Cops--can't count on the system to handle this well. You never know what kind of cop you're going to get.

But you can do therapy and you can also bring the issue to juvenile court and ask the court to mandate therapy and other programs. That's what you really have to do if there is a definite propensity for violence.

Suicide? Society would be lucky if the suicide happened before mass shooting. This teen is a menace to society. [/quote]
