Has there been any major changes in life? [b] Divorce, remarriage, change schools, death in the family, new sibling?[/b]

OP, to start with you and dh (if applicable) need to sit down and decide on consequences.  Then you explain those consequences to your 10 year old.

Throwing, kicking, hitting etc. require a bigger consequence than yelling.  If they  need to hit, they can beat the crap out of their pillow.

Do you have any ideas for what might work for consequences?  DS had to clean up any mess he made and work off the cost of any damage he did.  (We replaced an inside door because he stabbed it with a knife.  You will get no judgement from me on the things your child does.)

I know mine really didn't "get" the concept.  Still doesn't sometimes.

Above all right now, while you wait for an appointment, remain calm.  When dc is in full blown explosion is when you need to be calm, calm, calm.  Or at least appear that way.

You've been on my mind.  Those days were so scary.  I don't know what I would have done without outside help.[/quote]

OP here. No major changes.  [/quote]
