Battle is right...

Everything is a battle. The tantruming is about to drive me out of my mind. And who knows what sets him off. Transitions, low blood sugar, hunger, not wanting to do whatever I'm asking him to do... I have no idea. But EVERYTHING results in a tantrum that involves throwing things, hitting, biting, screaming, slamming doors.

I really am at my wits end. Somethings got to give.

I feel like I'm failing him. I find myself screaming at him to calm down and I'm not even calm myself. What kind of example is that?

Is it the transition into school? He had summer programs all summer. He didn't do well in them. He does not want to be touched, he does not want to be made to do anything he doesn't want to do. He wants to be left alone to follow his own schedule.

Ok, but that doesn't work in the real world.

But, whatever we're doing now isn't working either. And somethings got to change. Please God give us a breakthrough. Give me something that tells me we're doing the right things for him. A shred of hope that we're going to get through this part of the battle. Because boy are we battling.
