[QUOTE="ineedhelpplease, post: 221087, member: 6484"] He has never seen a neuropsychologist. I didn't even know there was such a thing. As far as early development, he crawled at 6 months and was walking around like he had done it all his life at 9 months. He was on target in his speech. He has a hard time making eye contact with people when they are talking to him. He likes to look to the side of the person or down. His doctors have always commented on how adult-like his speech and mannerisms are. He never went to daycare. I was home with him for the first two years of his life and then my husbands mother kept him until school started. He was a terrible bed wetter until about a year ago. He has only had 3 accidents in a year. Big time progress compared to almost nightly. My best friend states that Gregory doesn't know how to socialize with other kids and that is why he doesn't get along with others, but he got along just fine with his teammates on his baseball team. I don't know. As to psychiatric issues in the family line...My dad went to prison way before I was born for burning abandoned building down after his father died. One of my brothers is on anti-depressants, one of my nieces is on a medication cocktail for ADHD and a list of other stuff--the doctor is giving her medications for BiPolar (BP) even though he said she doesn't have it--just the only thing strong enough to control her, and my father-in-law was of a depressive nature. He was an alcoholic and drank himself to death. Another thing. Does anyone think that my taking care of my mother with alzheimers could be having an affect on my son? She has lived with us for almost 5 years and she is getting worse. She enrages him because she repeats herself and at times is like a child trying to get him in trouble. I've tried to explain that she is like this not of her own choosing and that he should love and treat her with respect. He does love her, but at times he sure doesn't like her. [/QUOTE]
