    I'd say it's the start of puberty. My DS was very similar two years ago, his behaviour changed, very moody, fighting with his siblings which was very out of character for him. There is really no advice I can give you except be patient with him. Good luck.

    OHH I've heard of that book. But heard mixed reviews on it so wasn't sure whether to read it or not.
