[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 183443, member: 1233"] What would happen if you told him that there was a problem. The lack of attention and focus on YOUR CHILD was keeping you from finding appropriate help for him. that this therapist's stories about druggies did not apply, and what is his real experience with adolescents with bipolar? Any chance this would yank his attention to you and to what you are paying him to focus on? Each time he gets off topic can you gently say, "That is interesting but we are having this problem ABC and not the problem you are obsessing on." ? Is there any chance this would helpmake these sessions more worthwhile? Just wondering. [/QUOTE]
