[QUOTE="Chailya, post: 356348"] Hi MidwestMom.. There aren't any known mental issues nor abusive addictions on other side of the gene pool. He wasn't normal acting to me from the get go but we attributed some of that to the fact he had colic, a hernia, and large production of ear wax..(affecting his desire for free close contact, and delayed speech). No troubles with eye contact though. He didn't respond to action/consequences like I was use to seeing with my 1st child and other children, and he would get obsessed on certain things with no amount of changing his obsession until he himself gave it up, and moved on. He was very hyper and spastic. He hasn't been antisocial but he has few friends because he treats them bad unless they do what he wants. School has always been a issue with higher than normal trips to the principals office since kindergarten, and just barely getting past grade wise. He was diagnosed with ADHD 4yrs ago by a psychological evaluation, and were hoping this summer to do the neuropsychologist testing now that we've been with the ADHD medications long enough to help mesh out what is or could be attributed to that diagnosis, and whats persistent with him that doesn't really fit there to better help the docs, and minimize the wrong diagnosis or over labeling. Unusual behaviors started well before any diagnosis or medication involvement. He currently can't carry on any really meaningful conversations, and "I don't know" is/has been his theme but he does show facial/body expressions. No issues with fabrics that I am aware of but he doesn't like having to chew a lot. As far as loud noises go..some bug him but others don't. Heh were pretty sure the ADHD diagnosis with him was spot on. Were just still trying to better define what might be related to that, and what isn't. Can't think of a better place to ask or seek than you all. :) Chailya [/QUOTE]
