[QUOTE="ksm, post: 762645, member: 12511"] Foster children have all kinds of professional help available to them. If he is not receiving help, he needs to be. Did his mom have a history of drug or alcohol use? During her prenatal period? Did she die because of substance abuse? Genetics? Family history? Does he have regular visits with his other brothers? Please contact his support worker/case manager and ask for help. Also see if foster care would arrange respite care so your family can have some down time and recharge your batteries. Does he have an IEP at school? Does he have the same behavior there? Basically, until you can get professional help I would suggest finding an activity or sport that he can feel good about, at home, try to give him some one on one time, without waiting for him to act up. Look for small glimpses of good behavior. Try to get him involved in activities at home...a craft, baking cookies, Legos, etc. This child has been thru more adverse effects in his short life than most adults have. Please reach out for help.
