    Hey, Snaggs, would it be an idea to get him into a sport like hockey? Or martial arts? That will teach him how to control his outbursts.
    Not an expert, but I try and contribute and I'll always listen. Middle child of middle child parents. I drink way too much coffee.

    I'll shake it first if it is a cake, that way all the calories will fall out. I'll send it to you and I shall just have some dust:p

    Thanks everyone :kiss:

    He's a lovely boy, he's curled up next to me now, all calm and happy, watching TV and being sweet to Natasha, and I'm just looking at his beautiful face and wondering where all the anger and aggression comes from.

    School seem to think they are doing all they can for him. :confused:

    They wouldn't apply for funding as his behaviour 'isn't bad enough'. How bad does it have to be? Why do they have to let these kids get to the 'being excluded' stage before they will help? :mad:

    Well, he's calm now, so I'll just hope for a good weekend, and see what happens next week.

    Not eaten much today, so a troll kebab would be just fine:D

    ( I think it was you who said that I may not be eating enough maz, so I now have toast or porage [ porridge?] at the meat market each morning, NOT with salt on! If it wasn't you it was the sort of wise thing you would say;) ;) )


    i think i might have said it was too much drink (firmly tongue in cheek i add!) then maybe you weren't eating early enough in the day... so well done you!

    Sure many others said the same thing that day though....

    Don't take advice from me though, i'm on 50 calories a day and nothing to eat, so hardly a good advisor... short term measure for long term gain i keep telling myself!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Angelflower - YES PLEASE :beer:

    BR - we've tried various activities and the problem is that he's not very co-ordinated and gets frustrated and angry. He struggles with the noise element too.

    Maybe you need to ask them to reconsider the application for funding in the light of his change of behaviour babes...

    Grrrr! Not only has the troll brassed me off, but now IT have too!

    Bought a scanner for work from an approved supplier but can't install it as I need to be an Administrator. IT are saying they won't install the scanner and the suppliers are saying they can only take it back if it's faulty. Therefore I'm stuck, having spent work's money with a scanner I can't use but can't send back! Not a happy Friday 13th for me! Grrr!
