I AM LOOKING FOR SOME ADVISE ON MY NINE YEAR OLD SON.ME AND MY BOYFRIEND (NOT HIS DAD) HAVE TRIED ALL THE DISIPLINE TECHNIQUES WE KNOW (EXCEPT HITTING)AND HIS BEHAVIOR IS STILL THE SAME. HE THROWS THESE MASSIVE TEMPER TANTRUMS WHEN HE DOSNT GET HIS WAY AND HE THINKS HE DOSNT HAVE TO LISTEN TO EITHER OF US. I AM AT MY WITTS END. HE REFUSES TO DO HIS SCHOOL WORK IN AND OUT OF SCHOOL AND HAS BEEN KEPT BACK ONCE ALL READY . I AM HOPING SOMEONE OUT THERE HAS BEEN IN MY SITUATION AND CAN GIVE US SOME ADVISE ON HOW TO DISIPLINE HIM SO HE UNDERSTANDS HIS BEHAVIOR IS UNACCEPTABLE. WE HAVE TRIED GROUNDING HIM ,PUTTING HIM IN TIME OUT TAKING AWAY HIS VIDEO GAMES NOT LETTING HIM GO TO HIS GRANDMOTHERS WE HAVE EVEN TAKEN EVERYTHING OUT OF HIS ROOM BUT THE FURNITURE. EVERY TIME WE DO ANY OF THESE IT DOES NOT SEEM TO PHAZE HIM . HE CONTINUES TO BEHAIVE IN THE SAME WAY. ANY ADVICE WE RECIEVE WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU.
