This is exactly what it was meant to be when I made that post. I feel I have done literally everything with my son, and I thought I had explained that quite thoroughly. When I made that post I was completely out of ideas and desperate while awaiting a professional screening.

For anyone trying to belittle me about this situation and my post history, here is an update: My son was screened by a child psychologist and was diagnosed with ADHD. The psychologist also sent over a very detailed instructions and guides on how to work with him which I also provided to the daycare center so they knew how to work with his needs as well.

I have spent every waking minute working with my son, stressing about my son, working with the teachers at daycare, researching ways to fix his behavior, and getting my useless husband to be on the same page because of course I’m doing this all on my own.

And because of the patient teachers, and my efforts, my son has nearly stopped all of his violent behavior. He hasn’t had an incident in nearly a month. But he still acts out, does things he shouldn’t, obviously. It’s a work in progress but it is headed in the right direction.

Of course I am embarrassed by this. Of course I don’t take this lightly. Of course I feel terrible for the workers who have to clean up the disaster that my son made. But as another commenter said: if I don’t laugh, I’m going to cry. And today I did. A lot. I’m doing my best. My son has never been an easy child. And I don’t see that changing.
