[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 200813, member: 1631"] Most schools will not do a neuro-psychiatric evaluation and I'm with mwm in that I wouldn't trust them if they did (this coming from someone who works in the public school system). My son does horrible on stimulants. He rages when on stimulants. For him it is due to his Bipolar. He is on medications that help his Bipolar and he needs them. I doubt very much I will ever try a stimulant again with my difficult child. With my difficult child we try to let school problems be school problems in that we don't do a double punishment (unless it's an out of school suspension-I may sure that is no fun whatsoever). We talk to him and try to help him to understand why he needs to change the behaviors but we don't double up on punishments. An iep should help because they should do a FBA (functional behavioral assessment) and then put into place a BIP (behavioral intervention plan) if it's behavior rather than just learning concerns.
