Tuesday Topic: Working Through Anger | One Thankful Mom | Lisa ...

Here is a question I?m sure many of you can answer. Mandy asked:

Our foster son (almost 4 years old) has been with us for 1 year now and we are officially adopting him within the next 6 months!?? YAY!? :)? That said ? within the past couple of months, he has become increasingly angry.? Any little thing will set him off to yell or hit or throw things around the house.? He didn?t used to do this, but he is now.? He doesn?t know he is going to be adopted by us yet ? and at this point, he still sees his birthmom once a week.

What do you all recommend for working through anger issues with a child?? I realize his anger is rooted in fear and hurt, but we?re not sure how to effectively work through it.? He will be hugging us so?intensely?and saying ?I?LOVE YOU? one minute ? and then be trying to hit us and saying ?I HATE YOU? the next minute.? So exhausting.? It affects our 4 biological children, too.? Is this normal for a child to be with you a year ? and then all-of-a-sudden start showing?intense?anger?

Let?s encourage Mandy and offer some thoughts. ?What have you found to be helpful? ?How about the other kids? ? Yes, we really do want to hear from you. ?Please leave a comment!

Encourage one another,

Lisa
