[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 237058, member: 1550"] Wow. Well, obviously they aren't up to serving all children, and I'd just dump them. I don't think counseling is what Elijah needs the most anyway. He needs an evaluation by a top notch professional (I suggest a neuropsychologist) so that you can get to the bottom of what is wrong with him. in my opinion that is what is best, not just therapy. You don't know if he has bipolar, they don't know either, and therapists aren't very good at diagnosing. I'm sorry you went through that, but it's them, not you. They just aren't equipped to deal with kids who have more needs than just an ear to talk to or behavioral therapy, which is very basic. He has already had counseling and it hasn't helped him--I would go further than that. It's time to find out what makes him tick. Obviously, you know he's not a typical child and the sooner you find out what is wrong, the better it will be for you and for him. JMO My thoughts are with you both. I'm so sorry. [/QUOTE]
