[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 253773, member: 1550"] I'm thinking that since you've always noticed he was a little different that this didn't really come on suddenly, but now he's older so it is worse. Frankly, I'd give him a neuropsychologist evaluation. He could have Aspergers Syndrome (this is a high functioning form of autism in which the children are extremely bright and actually talk well and early, but they have trouble with sensory stuff, transitions, and understanding how to socialize with same-age peers. In frustration and when they have to do something unexpected or transition, they can be quite explosive if they are not given the proper interventions. I think it's worth an evaluation because the earlier anything is caught, the easier it is to help the problem. I believe in "better to be safe than sorry." As you know, most kids don't act that way around caregivers, and in my opinion it's more than his just being naughty or defiant. Does he memorize things by rote and repeat them (like a whole television show or commercials?) Any obsessive behaviors? Does he make solid eye contact with strangers? Does he play appropriately with toys and have a good imagination? Does he understand other's personal space? Does he complain about loud noise, certain foods, certain textures?
