The way I was raised is not the "acceptable" way of raising a child. My parents were both strict and loving. Though I did rebel in a lot of ways, I wasn't a bad child.
My son can be very similar and very different to me. I liked being alone, I detested having to share my room with a sister who I always had to look after, take care of... Especially when I was young, I wanted to be left alone.
My son wants attention. There are times he wants to be left alone but he is strong outside but fragile inside.
I am afraid that one day, he will kill himself.
I've already lost one child. People who read this blog - me and like 2 others probably..., no that I have already lost a child. I do not want that to happen again.
But how?
Last year, I witnessed depression and fer grip my child, he was just 8 years old and I couldn't help him.
This year, he has taken on a violent nature, and I still can't help him.
How do I do this?
I feel like I am the one that needs therapy. I also need help.
Is there a place that I can go to for help?
