[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 49609"] We are not professionals here and cannot claim to know more than those educated and trained in the mental health field and those that see your child in a clinical setting. Conduct Disorder is in the DSM for a reason: because it does exist and it does exist in children. In order for a diagnosis to get into the DSM, a consensus has to be reached among those in the field. It is imperative, however, that you become an advocate for your child and work closely with the mental health professionals in order to insure an accurate diagnosis (diagnosis). That road is often long. I would start with the parent report. How is his behavior at school? Does he have an IEP in place? This is a long journey. Be sure to take time for yourself. Welcome to the board. I'm glad you've found us. [/QUOTE]
