My son has said and done some of the most awful things to us. Things so bad that I can't even repeat them. It saddens and embarrasses me, and it breaks my heart for my family. However, he is on medication and doing well now. His moods are under better control, and we haven't had a terrible outburst in a couple years. So I try very hard to forgive and forget what he has said and done in the past, so we can move forward in a more loving and positive way.

My foster son is 11 and has told his teacher he wants to kill them, and has made intimidating statements to an officer that "if i had that gun instead of you...." he hits and kicks his teachers at least once a week. we are praying for some kind of sense to be made out of this

My 16-year-old has threatened to kill his dad and I,and he has also threatened a fellow classmate with harming her. This is all so out of character for the sweet, kind, responsible young man that he used to be (this transpired over the past couple of years). I am so heartbroken.

Lol I'll cry if I repeat it

So many mean words fly out of his mouth when in a rage:
I hate you
F B
You are a child molester
Racist
Piece of shit
B whore

It’s pretty much endless and makes me feel terrible. I actually end up hating my kid. Does anyone else feel the same as I?
His dad just listens and says he doesn’t mean it - it’s his mental illness. It’s so difficult to forget what he says.

My son is 10 years old and diagnosed with ADHD/ODD/ASD, anxiety, depression and now DMDD. He's always been combative, since before he was 18 months and it's been bad all of these years. Recently, we started him on Straterra and his anger and aggression has just gotten worse. His volatile, irrational anger lies just beneath the surface and when he's in a rage, he uses every cuss word that exists:

F word
B word
GD
S word
I hate you
I wish you were dead
You aren't my real mom (he is adopted)
You should have left me with (bio mom), she would have been a better mom that you
I hope you die
And you wonder why I want to kill myself, it's because of you
You never listen, you don't care, you don't give a sh**
You don't love me
You never do anything for me

And on and on and on...sometimes for an hour. I sometimes have to lock myself in my room or my bathroom to create some space between us.

Lately when he's raging that much, he's raising his fist to me and threatening to him me, along with destroying everything in the house.

It's exhausting and very sad. I am broken. He is broken. And we need more help.

Im a foster parent and our 7 yr old girl has theatened to kill me and my animlas, and herself. She has stabbed thoings with kitchen knives around the house including windows, dumping liquids under her door when she gets to the point where letting her out of her room until she is calmed down would cause danger to me and my family. swearing nasty provactaive words at me, telling me she will never ever be like me. That she hates me is the biggest one because my heart is so big twords her. she has everything she wants and needs including emotional support for her trauma. I wish i new how to help her. But once she gets to that point its almost impossible to bring her down.

He’s told me he hated me, that he loves daddy better, that he wishes he wasn’t born.
