I am a single parent beside three kids. My oldest is almost 9. He is a STRONG-WILLED individual and have be since

the day he be born. He will push and push and push even if he knows I wont budge. He is also hugely active and can run circles around me. I am starting to procure very disturbed about him getting elder. His innocence is already starting to fade partially due to his dad and I going through a horrid divorce. His dad is no relieve either as he encourage negative behavior and in attendance doesnt seem to be a point I can do about it contained by regards to custody/court as common custody is preferred in courts. How can I control his somewhat wild ways that are sure to become more feral as he gets elder? Too many men within my family enjoy been surrounded by and out of jail, on drugs and alcoholics (including my dad and my ex-husband). Some even died infantile. I CANNOT let that surface to my kids. I take them to church regularly and he just doesn't come across interested. He is "too cool" for church but sometimes I know he really enjoys it. It seem like the one and only time I have the feeble him back.

Answers:    You requirement to get him involved next to a therapist spur-of-the-moment. And be patient, but strong. Lots of tough love. If you can move far away where on earth dad has difficulty seeing him. Try to live surrounded by the country, boring, but better for him. Church is good, hope he's live in the youth groups. Give him rewards for worthy behavior and take away things for desperate behavior. I have brought up three boys and sometimes I want to cry, and others split my hair out, but as the oldest one presently nears 22, he gratitude me for being so tough when he lived at home and reminds his siblings to listen to me, so they will hold it easier when they graduate and decide what to do near their lives.
Hi, his diet may be effecting his behaviour. There are so abundant additives in foods in our time. Take a look at www.fedup.com.au
If you are serious about helping your son this may be the route to go.
Read the book The strong Willed Child by James Dobson and another one of his books Bring Up Boys?
Why skulk until the child is nine years old to resolve to step up?
Get the child and the family into counceling ASAP.
Try the Feingold diet for just about a year, see if you notice a difference. If you are already on a full-bodied eating diet, later start disciplining him, and a child such as this, time outs won't work.
