[quote=Anonymous]The reality is that your child needs support to manage his reactions better. This support may include medication, which is a blessing if it helps the child maneuver through life without the outbursts that are negatively impacting him on a daily basis. He also needs a lot of consistent behavioral support. Since it's not an actual option for him to avoid educational work - he must get an education - he needs consistency at home and school that teaches him that it's not optional. Too often parents and school staff are so hesitant to set the child off that they end up enabling and encouraging the behaviors that will cause this child to have no real place in society as an adult. A big picture view is needed - he's still young enough that he can be taught to work through his emotions. Once he's 18 he will be able to legally make decisions that could be devastating to his life and family, so you need to be sure that wherever he's placed in school the goal isn't just to avoid emotions and outbursts.
