So, here is what happenned in a nut shell:
son has a friend in the neighborhood who is adhd like him. He lives in the back section and has no one to play with, he has been rejected by everyone. He now comes foward to the front and plays with the boy across the street that my son used to play with. So, what is the problem? Whenever this child is there, there is a problem. All last weekend he wasnt there and all the kids played nicely.
Monday this week, he was caught on surveliiance footage ( home has security) attacking my child from behind and throwing him to the ground and hitting him. My child retaliated. the father showed up the next day and my husband asked him what he thought he was doing. The kid denied everything and my husband offered 4 seperate times to show the tape. No one wanted to view it.
This child throws baseballs into the faces of the other kids when he gets mad, including a kindergarten child who lives on our street. He was caught choking the child across the street up against the house when he got mad. He told all the kids up the street that my child sleeps with a bear but when my child mentioned that he was afraid of Chucky Cheese to the other kids...how dare he. This child can dish it out but he cant take it.
So now, the mother of this child doesnt talk to me anymore and my friend across the street of 2 years that I have been on vacation with isnt talking to me either even though we have not had any kind of a fight. My husband told this child and his father that this is where we live and if he cannot get along with my son, he can go play elsewhere as we are not leaving here.....I am stumped...why is it I am made to feel like we did something wrong when this mother will not discipline this child at all?
copy the tape and mail it to them.Copy the tape and send it to the police and DHHS. That kid has seriousI don't understand how parents can know that their child is prone to such dangerous behavior and not supervise him really closely. For everyone's sake, I hope this boy gets the help he desperately needs.
I agree that it might be time to consult the police. This boy is a serious threat to those around him. Have incidents been happening at school? You also could contact the school counselor.
As for your friend, why would she believe the other family and not you, especially when you are offering her proof? I know it hurts to lose the friendship, but clearly she wasn't much of a friend.
well, I thought about the tape and handing it over but all the police are going to say is that it is two 10 year olds having a fist fight.
I have told my child to fight if this child bothers him again. At school, the mother told me (when we were talking) that no one signed her sons yearbook at school, that the other kids think he is weird. I have gone to lunch with my son and seen this child at his lunch table. He just sits there, no one talks to him, it is if he doesnt exist.
As for my friend, I agree. I obviously thought more about the friendship than she did.
