Mark,
I just found your website and am very interested. I received your eBook last night and started reading it. You have written it for me!
My 13 year old son and I have a meeting with his probation officer this afternoon, between him and your online support I have some hope.
K___ has been seeing counselors for the past 4 years. He has never done well in a school setting. He does not get along well with other kids and has real issues with authority. All of his behaviors I either thought could be managed or he would outgrow. Instead things have escalated. He is an angry young guy and I just don't understand him most of the time. He lies most of the time and when we do talk I don't know what is real and what isn't.
At the same time that I am so frustrated with him, I also know that there is a very sensitive and caring person in him. He is very talented artistically and has a very creative mind. Pointed in the right direction, he will do awesome things. I just need to help him see that.
Anyway, thank you for e-mailing. I look forward to seeing better days with K___.
J.
