My great grandson lives with me. Two years ago the doctor took him of of his medicine for adhd.
Well he has greatly improved except for argueing with me. His Mother and i are the only ones he argues
with and he say he can't help himself. He will yell and howler till you spank him and put him in his room
or until he get his point across, even if it is not true. This can go on for hours. He has the worst temper I have ever seen. He get mad instantly. Can you help me ?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Sincerely speaking, he should be put under ADHD medication again. But before doing that take him to a psychological counselr, if he can hlp him. Anger tantrums are part of ADHD. If you are sure that he is not showing anyother symptoms of ADHD, then simple counseling should do. You should also see whether your grandson is adolescent. In such an age group, anger outbursts are normal.

I can help you in this aspect. Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
