[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 421011, member: 1233"] That is a big change in his abilities and that range of skills is amazing. At least now you have a better idea of what his brain is doing. It sounds like some areas have regressed instead of improving and developing as he ages. I don't know if this is true or is me not understanding clearly. If he has lost some abilities, or thinks he has, it will very likely trash his opinion of himself and what he can do. The violence is most probably due to the frustration. When Wiz was on the verge of a big leap ahead in things, esp in use of language and in reading and reading comprehension, he would be much mroe violent and snappish and unable to tolerate sensory things. It must be even harder for you because your difficult child 3 is the size of a full grown man most likely. The way you told him you would call the police because it isn't ever acceptable was exactly what he needed. I used to run into people, even teachers and principals, who would try to convince me I should be making excuses when Wiz was violent because he was frustrated. "He can't help it because he is so frustrated and has a disability" was something I heard ad nauseum, esp the year he was at our middle school (6th grade). My response was always that he has to function in the real world regardless of his disability - and no one in the real world is going to let him get violent and ignore it because he is frustrated. It was esp hard because they told Wiz what they told me, and that poor him to have a mother who "refused" to understand. Is there a way to organize his thoughts that worked years ago that you could re-introduce? It might help him again maybe. It sounds like you have a lot of good things set up for him. They may have to adjust the rules to allow him to get the HSC if that is possible. It sounds like his brain development is very uneven. Hopefully this means that eventually it will all catch up and function on about the same basic range. What does one have to do to get a job as a game tester? Why don't you help him start sending emails to game companies to try to get their attention and ask them what qualities and qualifications they look for in a game tester and how one applies to be a game tester.
