Ans: Well, some amount of damage has definitely taken place. But if both of you are willing, then you both can definitely strive to rectify it. First and foremost, please complete you master's degree initially. Then try and settle in a job of your choice. This should be your priority. The relationship issue will sort out in its own course. Take care!

Ans: Try encouraging desirable behaviours in the child, and maintain a calm and pleasant environment. Provide a calm, peaceful and structured environment at home. Avoid too much noise e.g. avoid having the television on loudly at all times. Try to avoid over-stimulating your child. Do not scold or interrupt the child too often. Praise him when he is not irritable. These small steps help.
You must get a proper assessment of the problems by a qualified professional in your city. You could consult a counsellor or a clinical psychologist at any major hospital. You need to know the exact nature of the problem. You may feel your child is hyperactive, but it is wrong to jump to conclusions yourself. After assessment, you need to follow interventions, medical or psychological, as suggested by the expert(s).
