cant take much more
If you turn the t.v up or become hard with him, he will learn to reflect what you are doing. Please don't listen to your partner. You son needs you to listen and he needs your love.

You don't mention if your child has been either diagnoised with ADHD and a related syndrome (ODD oppositional disorder) and if he is medicated.
Regardless, first thing is to get him into a child psychologist ASAP. It sounds like its time for intervention. If he is on meds, sounds like they either aren't working or need to be tweaked.
From a holistic point of view, I've just got done listening to the audio tape "The Explosive Child" (its also available on book). It was recommended by several folks on this site and let me tell ya, it is really good and it works! It will help to relieve the tension, anxiety and overall hostility in both your child and your entire household.
Good Luck

how can u calm the tantrams my 7 old son will go into a tantrams he will kick punch everything his screaming and crying gets to me i dont know how much more i can take my partner says u got to b hard on him when he comes home he got to go to bed and he dont get anything i agree with him but i cant take all the screaming and crying if u turn the tv up he will get louder then he will start banging thing on the floor have any one got any good ideas on what to do please
Please do not ignore your child through a temper tantrum, he needs you as he is out of control. I strongly recommend the Explosive Child book or tape and they have a web site with a message board for support in the techniques called explosivekids.
Good luck
I would totally disagree with your logic about being hard on him/her. With my son it only makes the problem worse when we lose our cool. The extra stress of our reaction makes him totally unable to focus and get himself back in control. I think the "hard knocks" aproach works for children that are able to respond normally, but it can be really complicated with the ADHD/ADD mind. I recommend professional help to find out the best way to approach the problem for his/her type.
