[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 449327"] You can ask that none of his work be considered late (works for my difficult child) and that they ask him for it at the beginning of each day/class. Since that is one of his lacking skills, they need to bridge the gap as well as to try to TEACH him this skill. Also, I put the date he did it and my initials at the top of ALL work he does at home. Your original post said you've tried other medications. Which ones have been tried? What behaviors are they trying to control with the medications? If difficult child has never mentioned voices before, I wouldn't put a whole lot of stock in it quite yet. I agree with keista. Lighting fires (although not necessarily in the house) and porn CAN be just phases most kids go through. Can you use parental controls on your computer to block those kinds of websites? As for the fires, is there a way he can be given the job of lighting "good fires" such as fireplace, campfires, burning garbage, etc. That would teach the proper use of fire. Being Aspie, that would work better than punishing for improper use. Just some ideas from one who is still learning. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
