DS7 seems to struggle with what I think most would call impulse control. It seems to be worse at home (especially this summer?!) but can be an issue at camps, etc. He is very strong willed and nothing I try seems to really help. It is worse when he is at loose ends. Examples... Throwing his stuffed animals at me as I leave his room, kicking over his brother's toys, elbowing me at church. He is usually sorry but only after punishment and or a long lecture. We have basically banned computer/iPad use for the foreseeable future.

Has anyone had success in teaching better control without a complex rewards system? It is causing a lot of stress...
