[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 557036, member: 11791"] You're going to hear this repeated... because so many of us have been there. Your son needs a [I]comprehensive[/I] evaluation - neuropsychologist, child behavioral/developmental team, etc., highly specialised people with intensive evaluations. You need to get to the bottom of WHY the behaviour is happening. It takes time to get in to those specialists, though. SO if you can, in the mean time, it might be useful to get an Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation - for sensory and motor skills issues. The Occupational Therapist (OT) has therapies to help... and an Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation report IS useful to those doing a comprehensive evaluation. (Some teams include an Occupational Therapist (OT), but many do not). Just because the behaviour shows up at home, doesn't mean the problem is at home. School may be taking every single ounce of mental and emotional strength he has... and when he gets home there is [I]nothing left[/I]. (been there done that... ) [/QUOTE]
