[QUOTE="totoro, post: 202140, member: 3155"] Welcome! How old is your child? Is your apt with a Psychologist or a Psychiatrist? I would opt for the later as well as a full Nuero-psychiatric evaluation. This can, if it is done properly, tell you what direction to go with your child. What areas your child has defects or deficits in and what may be going on or possible diagnosis's. I would put most rules except the most important ones/safety on hold until you know what is going on and can work on the whole families behaviour modifications. Because usually once you know what is going on, there really does need to be a change within the whole family unit. For us, we worked on safety and getting K to school for the first year, and if she didn't want to brush her teeth or shower... so be it. If she needed to eat now! So be it. It isn't worth the fight at times. When my daughter is unstable I never punish her with restrictions or things that are way beyond her grasp. You have to look at what he is capable of at each place in time. Hang in there and keep coming back and asking questions! [/QUOTE]
