[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 604380, member: 1550"] I would give him a neuropsychologist evaluation. I wouldn't wait or hope it goes away. I'd just do it and get him help. Very rarely do things just get better...interventions (the earlier the better) really, really make a difference, but you need to be sure of what is going on. in my opinion a therapist is not enough and they can not diagnose legally. And our differently wired kids rarely respond to things like play therapy, charts, praise, time out, etc. Usually we need a high level professional who understands how to best parent our "different" kids. You may want to purchase "The Explosive Child" by Ross Greene. The books methods are a great placeholder. Drugs can help with some symptoms. Rarely do they cure the whole problem and often they wear off so they need to be carefully monitored. [/QUOTE]
