Child Anger Posted: 02-08-05 11:22am
Our 9 year old recently has been put on
prozac (prior to taking zoloft for 8
mo.)..He is now seeing a therapist.
He is very moody, angry, rarely smiles,
aggressive, oppositional, etc.
This happens everywhere not just
home...School, during summer break w/
grandparents, his mom's (visits on
weekends-lives w/ me and his dad), bossy
and mean to friends...
His therapist (after only 3 sessions) has
come to the conclusion that this is all
caused by his 4 year old brother. The 1st
session he met with our 9 year old &
dad, 2nd session met with me & son,
3rd session met with son, myself, daughter
and 4 year old.. That is when he said all
the stress and anger son has is because of
our 4 year old....
I left very upset and angry that he could
say this....
I dont understand how all his behaviors
are the cause of our 4 year old... He
(therapist) says our son acts this way
because he "remembers" the last time his
brother aggrevated him....I dont get that
at all....Very confused and upset....
Can anyone relate or give suggestions....I
know this is a vague description of our
situation but I could go on forever....
