A Very Troubled 6 Year Old

by Jaqueline
(Johannesburg)

My partner has 3 kids. Her eldest is 6, and his anger management is getting really really bad. We don't know what to do with him.

He hurts everyone, and he is so cheeky. I am shocked to see a 6 year old like he is.

My partner is on her last string. She is heading for a nervous breakdown or something.

Please help us before it gets any worse

Believe in this child. He is good, and he's just trying to say something with his anger.
