[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 569103"] I'm with Buddy. No way would I leave anything mental health to a pediatrician much less a medication assistant. No way! As for the " trying a little longer on my own", well, to be perfectly honest, unless you KNOW what the problem is and why, you're not really going to have a lot of success. You may be used to the way he is but he is going to have to learn to function in the real world and that isn't going to happen without the right supports. Same goes for your daughter. My kids have Facebook accounts but the rules were set before I would even consider it. My rules are that they are not allowed to friend ANYONE without my permission, I will ALWAYS have their username and password, and that I WILL check their account at any time. ANY violations results in closing the account until they are 18 and loss of computer privileges completely for a long period of time unless I am sitting right there beside them so I can monitor them. They know that I do check and I have made sure that they know they have to earn my trust. There is no way my kid would keep ANY internet activity a secret from me. There are times they wonder if I really do have eyes in the back of my head or am psychic and I want to keep it that way. Sorry you're having to go through all this. It can be so frustrating. {{{HUGS}}} [/QUOTE]
