[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 392874, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Hi & welcome. I get so tired of the word "labels". It's a medical diagnosis for goodness sake. The word label wouldn't come into play if it was cancer, epilepsy or diabetes yet if it's an cognitive, psychiatric or emotional disorder it's a "label". Sorry for the rant, I've heard this so many times over the years. Marg is right ~ you need said "label" if you want to get the correct treatment for your difficult child. Ross Green's book is a wonderful resource. There are also the Love & Logic books (that worked better here for numerous reasons). A neuropsychologist is a good first step. In the meantime, feel free to come here to vent, commiserate, & share happy times. While our difficult children have many different diagnosis's & behaviors, the parents of said difficult children have tremendous survival skills no matter the diagnosis. There's a great deal of wisdom here. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
