[QUOTE="recovering doormat, post: 271071, member: 5941"] First of all, as bio-mom to two difficult children, I salute you for being such a concerned stepmother, and I am sorry that you are made to feel like a second class citizen when you are on the front lines. Kudos, also for being observant to his behaviors. I would be writing down everything he does, time, date, place, and thrusting it under the psychiatrist's nose. You might want a more experienced one too. My son's aggressive behavior towards his younger sister (three years apart) has meant that since age 11 he has lived with his dad following our separation and divorce, and we have had DCF involved with us because I left the two alone together for ten minutes on a Sunday night while I went Occupational Therapist (OT) get milk for breakfast, they got into an argument and he threatened her with a pair of scissors. I was found negligent. This happened in March 2007 and the case was just closed last month. I think a placement in a good Residential Treatment Center (RTC) where he can be weaned off the Lexapro and evaluated before they put him on soemthing else would be a good idea. I just have the same sinking, uneasy feeling in my gut like you do after reading your post. If you want to know the name of great Residential Treatment Center (RTC) in eastern PA, feel free to private message me. Good luck to you. [/QUOTE]
