[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What can a family therapist do? Not being snarky. Genuinely asking what they do to help.[/quote] The kid isn't the problem. The parent is the problem. Not talking about this situation specifically, just in general. The key is to give the parents tools to help the child. Expecting an ADHD ten year old to be capable of self regulation is cruel and unfair. [/quote] oh the parent is 100% the problem. if you're spanking your child out of rage and desperation bc you can't control the situation then expecting them to self regulate at a quarter of your age is quite the irony.[/quote] DP. I'm not sure how telling OP that she is the problem that her DS is spitting food on the floor, jumping on his brother, and throwing chairs is a helpful post. Objectively, overreacting and/or being scared of that behavior is reasonable. What she needs is helpful advice or if you don't have that, then sympathy. [/quote]
