[QUOTE="nvts, post: 412558, member: 3814"] Hi! Welcome to the forums! It's a great group of people with a lot of experience and strong shoulders to lean on. You can ordinarily get a neuropsychologist done in a Childrens Hospital or Teaching Hospital. Me? I'd go to the neuropsychologist - they'll give you suggestions as to whether or not you should go to a developmental pediatrician, a psychiatrist, psychologist or they may direct you to someone else that could help. Do you have an idea as to what YOU think may be wrong? Let me ask you a couple of questions. How was his early development? Any delays? Did he line up his toys, become an authority on any particular subject? Does he have what I call "itchy tag syndrome" you know - when a tag on their clothes drives them up a wall? Any hypersensitivity to smells, tastes, textures etc.? Answers to these questions can help us help you out. I'd also recommend that you take a look at "The Explosive Child" by Ross Greene - an easy read, but kind of insightful! Again, welcome to the board! Beth [/QUOTE]
