have you tried a psychiatrist?  He may have mood swings or is depressed, ask your doctor.

Answer 3

This sounds like you are describing my 9 y.o. daughter.   You may want to have him re-evaluated.  It may help to have a therapist work on some behavior modification techniques with him.  My daugher was eventually diagnosed with bipolar disorder,  oppositional difiance disorder, and a thyroid condition on top for her ADHD, all of which were working together to make it so that she truly could not control herself.

Answer 4

Tell him to have a Girl Friend

You should take him to a behavioral specialist who deals with ADD and ADHD patients.  He can teach him coping skills to help him express his anger and frustration without resorting to aggression.
