[QUOTE="hersheyb79, post: 466181, member: 11482"] DBD-not otherwise specified is Disruptive Behavior Disorder Not otherwise specified (such a gem right...who would want the kid labeled DISRUPTIVE in their class). The way I understand it, it's the diagnosis that ODD & ADHD fall under. As for the accuracy of the diagnosis...I have no clue. He fits every criteria for ODD, but his P-DR won't diagnosis him that way (I don't know why). When I asked about an IEP the school psychiatrist said there was no point in requesting one, because he needs to be behind academically, and he's not (yet, falling behind pretty quickly). She also told me it wouldn't offer him any extra protection for his violent behavior, because "violence is violence and it doesn't matter if it's part of his diagnosis or not." Is that not true? Again, I don't want him hitting kids every time he is upset, but he needs WAY more help than he's getting. He did well his last year in preschool, but he had a 1 on 1 aid, in Kindergarten they are giving him 10 minutes to go jump on a trampoline and allowing him to come to school 10 minutes early.
