hi first time poster and just come here looking for a bit of help regarding my 7 year old son, he has never been an easy child didn't sleep as a baby, then just didn't seem to want to play etc would just scream all day as he got older until he could talk etc.., I don't have any diagnosis on him as he hadn't been to the doctors as I think there is nothing a matter with him and he is just playing us, where as my partners thinks there is something a matter with him, not one day goes by with out a huge outburst off of him over something trivial, such as last night doing the weekley food shop and he couldn't have his own way with getting a toy car, he has a box full he never plays with so he kicks off at us that's it then for rest of evening till bed time we are treading on egg shells, usually when he kicks off he will turn his head facing away from us and shout horrible things at us like, I hate you, I don't love you, nobody likes me etc, it's got to the point where I'm depressed, my partners fed up and down with all the stress, my tqo other children 12 and 10 are getting pushed aside 12 year old stays in her room out of the way 10 year fights back with him, it's like a constant battle ground in the house, he hits both of my older children at the slightest little thing, won't eat his tea etc I just don't what to do as after all this at home he is a star pupil at school who never gets in trouble he is actually scared of getting in trouble at school, am I right in thinking he is playing us or could it be something else thank you in advance for any advice given x
