Here is an important nugget of info.

anger is really just incredible fear.

It is the fear that you can't control a situation, that you can't figure things out.

If you could help him, during less stressful times understand that and find new ways to handle his emotions.....it might be helpful.

I would talk to him when he is in a good mood. I would say "Hey, lets go take a walk together and talk."

I would tell him that you want him to find a way to handle this now, so his teen years will be less stressful for him.

Hopefully you two can have a good conversation.

Going through the teens is so difficult due to the changes and fluctuations in the body and brain. It is a good time to set patterns for adult life too!

BTW....I have a 15 yr old ds and he is perfectly capable of discussing his emotions with us.
