[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 530196"] Yes, he is coming off a HUGE growth spurt! Even his therapist is amazed at how fast he's been growing. We increased his risperdal because, as the psychiatrist put it, he was rather "unstable" and that seems to have helped quite a bit. Even difficult child sees that he's doing better. Yesterday he was arguing with easy child and easy child cursed at him (which he learned to do from difficult child, but that's another issue for another day). Usually if easy child curses at difficult child, difficult child goes absolutely off the wall. Yesterday he threw his hand up in the air and said, "I'm done! I'm walking away." I calmly thanked him for doing so and asked him to please leave the room so that I could deal with easy child. He did and it all ended fairly peacefully. Afterwards I told him that I was really proud of him for walking away because it made ending the moment of turmoil much easier to deal with and he was happy about being acknowledged. [/QUOTE]
