| Hi everyone, I currently have a 13 year old teenage boy who is absolutely unruly. He would get into fights with his older sisters and bother them while they are doing their homework, then throw tantrums when he doesn't get what he wants. He's constantly asking for us to buy him toys, and when we deny him that privilege, he starts throwing things around the house and punches the walls so now his room is filled with holes. No matter how calm we talk with him, he always ends up yelling and screaming at us. There really is nothing we can take away from him to punish him because he has no friends, and is very shy when he's at school. However when he comes home he's a totally different person. He also doesn't play much video games, all he really does is go online to watch youtube videos or learn card games. Sometimes he would ignore everyone in the family for months. We are at a loss of what to do, and would love to see if we can get any advice. |
