it could be over the stupidest thing and i know i dont help much when i loose my temper wiht him cause he wont stop so the only thing i could think of is to tell him to go to his room. he does go but he kicks the wall and breaks things in his room and writes on hte walls to make me mad i thought of ecnoring him but that makes it worst and i also took things he likes doing away that dont work. When he is done he will come to me and say sorry and give me a hug what do i do

Start grounding. Take away something he really likes for a certain amount of time. And stick to it. For my daughter it is her kitten. Now that I have done it a few times all I have to do is threaten her. She is 7 also.

well you have sort of answered your own ? .. you loose your temper with him .. it must be a big battle field there ... it is a very hard thing to do , but you must keep your cool .. dont spank him as the others have said , does not fix a thing .. first . if you send him to his room , and he breaks things writes on walls ,, then you remove all from his room . toys pencils books , .. and if this behaviour is happening a lot . then i think its time to get some outside help ( doctor ect) . he seems a angry little guy .. have you tried sitting on the floor and holding ( hug) him tight till he calms down ,, you have to be strong and to let them know you are the boss and make the rules clear ... when you say no .. mean no ... and not no you cant do that . and in the same breath say oh ok .. its just giving him mixed messages,, also you could use the net to do dome research on anger management .. good luck .. be strong .

If he's going to be this much trouble, you may want to clear a room for him to do 'timeout' in...
Start by keeping a diary of food he eats - I know this is hard, may feel impossible, but it is possible that he acts this way due to food allergies [Ben Feingold wrote a book about it, maybe 2]. If you take him to MD before you look into food allergies, the odds are he will end up on Ritalin or something similar.
My daughter would literally bounce off the walls when she at anything with certain food colors and certain foods. She was so improved by Feingold diet that she caught up to class in a short time. Of course, eliminating soda pop and some of her fav treats felt like torture for both of us, but it was well worth it.
Good luck!

Obviously he was never really disciplined when he was a small child and all you can come up with now is to send him to his room where he continues his tantrums. The reason he still throws tantrums is that he has gotten away with doing so in the past...What you do is you set into place rules and stop giving in to his tantrums and when he throws them ignore him.

A spanking could do a world of good
