[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 389571, member: 84"] Not normal 5 yr old behavior. But no, it does not mean your son will become a sociopath either. Nor does it mean you can't turn the behavior around. I'd go seek the help of a professional and have him evaluated. He's been through a lot for his 5 yrs. That doesn't excuse his behavior, it simply can explain some of the rage ect. The behavior itself is still unacceptable. Odds are it has continued because it's been allowed to continue........not criticizing your parenting, just saying you probably don't have the skills yet to handle such behaviors, doesn't make you a bad parent. Those skills can be learned and a professional can help you learn them as well as help your son. Children don't come with an owners guide. I hope you stick around here as there is tons of advice and support to be had. And having a difficult child.........well, we parents learn new skills and techniques to handle situations as they come up all the time. If our kids were like the run of the mill........we wouldn't be here. lol ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
