[QUOTE="tryinghard, post: 133753, member: 4570"] Thank you so much for your input and questions. I do not believe his IEP is adequate or working. The problem is they do not appear to want to help him at all. Their attitude is he is in sixth grade and he needs to figure it out and take responsiblity. Until I found this site, I did not understand different options he\I have. I did post on the Special Education site and have followed their advice of hiring an advocate and getting a NP evaluation. I am in the process of setting up the NP and then will ask for another IEP meeting with the advocate. As for delays, he did not speaking until age three. He never had problems with eye contact or affection. He was never an overly affectionate kid, but would hug and kiss and would let you do the same to him. He was just very hyper and implusive and talked late. He would NEVER sit in circle time at preschool. He would get up and wander the room. One preschool teacher told me that he was a very angry kid. He would get in a lot of physical altercation with kids and adults. He has been able to control his temper as he is getting older. He does have friends. He has poor social skills though and tends to get in arguments with his friends alot. He tends to blame others for things he did or things that just happen in life and are no ones fault. I have tried to read up all the the possible diagnosis's he could have. They are SO confusing becaue they tend to have a lot of the same symptoms associated. [/QUOTE]
