need advice
ss9 is out of control to me. he lies about everything and anything. at school he walks out of class, yells at teacher, gets in to fights, tries to really hurt his brother ss7, yesterday I caught him trying to get high on nail polish, to day I found him sitting in his room with a box cutter cutting up his pillow. when asked where he got it from he said BM, so I asked him if I call BM she will say she gave it to him then he said he found it, but then I found out he stole it from my brother when they went to my moms this pasted weekend.
I think this kids need major help! bm left them with us over 2 years ago and only is around a few times a year. dh works 6 days a week graveyard so he is really only home to sleep.
I feel this kid ss9 is a danger to my dd9 and ss7 and thinks he needs help but I don't know what kind or where to start. I have been Google but haven't anything helpful.
Advice please????

The kid sounds seriously
The kid sounds seriously psychologically disturbed and his behaviour is definitely not normal. He sounds like a sociopath in the making and will only get worse if nothing is done. You're right to be worried about him being a danger to the other kids in the house and I agree with the above poster that his father needs to get him professionally evaluated as soon as possible. It's not fair that you're having to deal with this and his parents need to recognise there is a problem and get him the help he needs.
Have you tried googling behavioural problems and/or compulsive lying in children? Attachment disorder is also be worth a look as he could be suffering the effects of his mother abandoning him more than he shows. If you can start to understand what's behind the behaviour it might help you learn how to deal with it, but you cannot do this alone and this kid needs serious professional help before he turns into a dangerous sociopathic teen.
