[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 547140"] I wholeheartedly agree with the others. My mother has said many of the same things to me and I no longer have much contact with her. I limit the contact, don't tell her anything, and refuse to discuss my kids with her. She was physically and (still is) emotionally abusive to me and I swore I would never raise my kids to be afraid of me like I am of her. As for the neuropsychologist, I would get an outside referral from your pediatrician/family doctor. Most professionals don't like being second-guessed and I would not risk stepping on your psychiatric's toes......yet. The neurospych I took difficult child 1 to was AWESOME and his reputation is that of the best in the state. He told me things I'd never even thought of and gave GREAT recommendations for accommodations and services in and out of school. You're doing a great job! No kid listens to their parents as well as they listen to other people. Never gonna happen so it doesn't surprise me that he listened to your brother better than you. DUH! {{{{HUGS}}}} I have so been where you are and to preserve some of your sanity, you might want to follow through on your plan when it comes to your mother. It's tough enough dealing with a difficult child, you don't need to bear the brunt of her blame besides. [/QUOTE]
