[QUOTE="goingnuts, post: 188354, member: 5802"] Thanks for all the welcoming messages!! =) It sure feels so good just to know I am not alone... Here is the story: I have a 23 yr girl, a 21 yr boy and my so complicated 15 yr old. My son was a very quiet and happy baby. He learned to talk and walk very early compared to others his age and to his 2 older brothers. Potty training was another issue. Once he learned he had a voice, he refused to use a diaper, and of course he also refused to use the potty. He was a charming 2 year old an my nightmare was just beggining. He adored his older (6 years his senior) brother until suddenly one day when he was about 8 he decided he didn't like his brother so much any more, with no apparent reason. As he grew older his relationship with his brother and sister deteriorated. It went downhill from there. He has huge reactions to small problems or annoyances. He has never liked being kissed or hugged. He won't listen to sex education and until about six months ago, he would't even watch a kiss scene on a movie. If I wasn't with him all the time (except for school) I would have suspected sexual abuse. He is a straight A student and very responsible in school. He is very intellectual, has a high IQ, but his motor skills are not so good. For example, his handwriting is terrible, he had difficulty learning to catch a ball. In the IQ test he did great except for the part of social skills. He never liked playing with toys, he would rather read or watch TV or play video games. Even now when all the kids go to recess he stays in the classroom doing his homework. Never made strange noices nor rocking movements. No genetic testing. I live in Mexico and any psychiatric evaluation has to be payed by the family. He is going with a psycologist and he said at first thet he didn't want to "tag" him by naming a disorder, but finaly said he has obsesive-compulsive disorder (I am not so sure now this is accurate) He goes once a week. I think he is tricking the psychologist (he can be quite charming when he wants to) No substance abuse, he won't even have a drink of alcohol. No friends. He claims he doesn't want nor need friends. He tries (and succeeds) to get on my nerves every single day. My husband's twin brother has schitzofrenia. He has ALL of the symptoms listed for ODD. nvts: how do I add the signature? THANKS SO MUCH FOR LISTENING (reading) I hope I didn't make this extra long. [/QUOTE]
