He's on Concerta, Prozac and Respirdal. He understands that what he did was wrong and feels bad about how upset I am. He has very little impulse control though. The cops brought him to the store and made him apologize and return the item, an IPOD cover. He has a lot of problems mentally and I'm just at my wits end. His main doctor suggested I place him in a group home but I'm not ready to give up on him. He's only in 5th grade. He can't have a paper route or really do anything where he isn't supervised 24/7, literally. That is part of the reason we are so broke. I haven't found anyone who will keep the eye on him that he needs. Even when I'm at home, we have to be in the same room or he's doing something he shouldn't.
He also developed Trichotillomania in the last couple week and we had to shave his head bald and he still looks terrible. I just really needed to vent. Thanks.
