[QUOTE="dun4, post: 294591, member: 7792"] Thank you for the responses. My first suspicion was drugs. That at least would explain things. I've searched his car and his room. He was in the juvenile detention center for several days. I figured if he was using, the first thing he'd do after going without for several days was use. I had him tested the next day. The doctors office said it was a thorough test that would cover the previous 3 weeks. He was clean. He doesn't have unexplained money. He has a fit when I won't give him money for cigarettes or gas. My mother doesn't approve of my handling of him so he knows he can go to her for money. Also the pdr was considering a brain injury. My son was assaulted in the fall. The ER said there was a no brain injury at the time. My difficult child has become almost obsessed with skateboarding so who knows what he's done that I don't know about. I've asked the pdr about doing tests to see if there is a brain injury, but he said it's still to soon to start testing. Then he diagnosed ODD. I don't want him to be on drugs, but I'm not going turn a blind eye. I don't know what to do next if it's a drug that doesn't show on tests. The only good days we have anymore are when I don't have to tell him no. [/QUOTE]
