[QUOTE="hersheyb79, post: 418640, member: 11482"] He's been evaluated by EI 4 times in 2 years. Until his behaviors affect his academic learning they can't offer services. Right now he tests very high academically, so they basically want to wait until he's angry and dumb to help (that's how it feels). I don't think this is the case. DS 6 is actually adopted. We have no history of mental illness in our family. When he was born I developed an infection and was hospitalized for several months. I'm convinced that those months we didn't get to bond caused some serious problems for him. daughter who's 1 is also adopted, her CP is a result of some substance exposures before she was born. I have taken him to the county mental health dept...they have him seeing a useless therapist who tells him to "be a turtle" when he's mad. Have you ever tried to tell a raging 5yo to act like an ever loving turtle...seriously. I have no idea what else to do. husband said that he kicked DS tonight in a fit of rage. As near as he could tell it was because DS got too close. This AM he hated us all because daughter picked up something he dropped and handed it too him. I seriously have considered having him committed. It makes me feel like a horrible mom. He turns our lives upside down. I'm worried about our baby and what happens when she starts walking...will she no longer be the cute little sister, but another child to rage at. I feel awful for feeling like this, but I cannot control him anymore, he's the biggest of the 4 (our 6yos are both small for their age, he's big for his age). I just want him to be happy again. He was the most smiley baby, then he just wasn't one day. [/QUOTE]
