  • thank you ffr the replies my family are a great help to me and my sons and recently they have been away for a fortnight and thhats when my youngesta behaviour got completely out of hand they are back now and he has calmed down. I wish I could control his behaviour without them tho as I hate being a burden and would love to prove myself as a independent parent social services took him because I scratched him whilst pulling him back from the road then made me jump through hoops to get him back it was hell I didn't understand half of what was going on and I still don't understand why it happened because I was only saving him from getting ran over I would never hurt him I love him and just want to protect him best I can
