[QUOTE="tracy24w, post: 348177, member: 9174"] It sounds like you and I are close to being in the same boat!! My difficult child is ready to get kicked out of his preschool too. Real school starts this fall, and I'm pretty anxious to find out what is going on with my son as well!! His pediatrician has diagnosed ADHD/ODD/Mood disorder by my family history, his dad's family history, difficult child's behavior, and Focalin really made his attitude worse!! I dont have a complete evaluation either. We just started Lamictal 4 days ago. We have an apointment with Early Intervention coming up on the 31st. I am very anxious to hear what they have to tell me and find ou more!! difficult child has been in daycare for 2 2/2 years, and didn't really have much problem until the new pre-K teacher took over. The directors tell me she likes to have control, and runs a tight ship. I strongly feel that she & difficult child just do not fit each other. None of the other teachers he's had have had any behavior problems. SO & I thought maybe we weren't discipling enough, and started cracking down. This BACKFIRED! I'm not sure if Focalin brought some of it out. We've tried talking to new teacher, told her to take some time and diffuse when she sees difficult child getting frustrated. Her reply was that she has 20 other kids to attend to and can't take the time to talk down difficult child. I know that 5 minutes to talk him down is much better than a tantrum, but I don't think she cares too much, no matter how much she says she wants to help. difficult child started back in the beginner preschool class today. He was pretty upset about it. We tried to explain that because he fights with PreK teacher, he has to go to the other room. SO & I decided that we are going to take him to daycare only 3 days a week now. I know he can't really control how he reacts, and daycare teachers constantly disciplining has got to have some kind of negative effect on his esteem. I can't wait to find out what is really going on in his little brain, so we know what to do and what to tell teachers to do!! Real school is coming up this fall, and there is laws that they need to help. It does feel pretty desperate. I can definately relate to how you are feeling!! [/QUOTE]
