‘If my son was a dog, I’d have him put down’… oh come on don’t so shock over this remark.

This woman is right…when a dog is protecting it’s owner or home it’s will be seen as a aggressive act towards humans, the dog is then vicious and will be killed.

She made this statement to compare it with daily live…to let you know that most people don’t value live only the human race.

Animals are killed for less on a daily base…beaten, tortured, neglected, burned to death, injected with chemicals and even eaten alive.

This woman didn’t say that is going to put her child down, she was comparing her child’s behavior with our thoughts about animals in generally.

‘If my son was a dog, I’d have him put down’: Mother whose son suffers from ADHD says she is fed up of her daily, violent battles with him

• Jenny Young has 4 children and all suffer with the behavioral disorder 
• Youngest son Ryan, 10, suffers with ADHD and severe learning disabilities
• Mother says parents need more psychological and day-to-day support

A mother shocked a television audience yesterday by admitting that if her ten-year-old son were an animal, she would have him put down.

Jenny Young told how son Ryan has such severe ADHD that he subjects her to daily violent attacks and is so hard to deal with that she sometimes wishes she had the choice to end his life.

The mother of four told ITV’s This Morning that because she is his mother, and not a pet owner, she has no choice but to put up with his erratic behavior.

Miss Young likened Ryan to a dog that a family member had to have put down because they could not control its violence.

She asked viewers not to judge her until they had heard her whole story, adding: ‘I don’t liken Ryan and the dog exactly but there is a choice.

‘When you have a dog that behaves [violently] and might attack you any minute, you have a choice. I wouldn’t be without Ryan but I was trying to make the point that when you’re the mother of a child like Ryan there is no choice.

‘There isn’t a refuge for battered mums – you have to get on with it.’

Twice-divorced Miss Young has three other children, aged 25, 23 and 19, who all suffer with a less extreme version of the psychiatric disorder, with which she herself was diagnosed in her mid-forties.

The condition, which affects about 6 per cent of children, is characterised by significant learning difficulties, inattention, hyperactivity and impulsiveness.

She told of the pain of having all four children diagnosed with the disorder: ‘You don’t love your child any less but it’s a bit like going on holiday and not arriving in the place you expected. It’s a lovely place, but not what you expected.’

Ryan – who has the mental age of two – is like a normal child 99 per cent of the time but for the other 1 per cent is violent and unpredictable, she said.

‘There are two sides to him. The biggest problem is the unpredictability.

‘He can be gorgeous all day and then I can squat down to give him a cuddle and he might bite me or scratch me or knock my glasses off or punch me.

‘At least every day I get punched in the face.’

Miss Young, who gave up work to care full time for Ryan, says her second marriage broke down because of the strain of coping with him.

‘Simply changing routine can cause him to become upset but sometimes it can be nothing,’ she said.

‘The worst fear is that he won’t get better and he will be the same size as me – and do even more damage.
