[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 323798, member: 1991"] There you go - another recommendation for a neuropsychologist evaluation. They do take time to get organised, the baby will have arrived (almost certainly) before you have some answers. If this is Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), then it is definitely a high-functioning case. Which is a good thing, that would be an outcome you could do something positive with, to help turn this kid around. MWM, tank you for reinforcing what I was trying to say - this is not bad parenting. Not now, anyway. past problems may well be a factor, but the poor responses you are getting, Opus, make me sure that your best efforts simply won't get through at the momet until you can get some clearer sense of direction as to what is wrong, as well as the best way to handle him. It's not just good parenting he needs - you're already doing that and it's just not hitting the mark, no matter what you try. That's what screams at me - he needs an evaluation. And in the meantime - you all need help to cope and to try to work on the past history stuff. We're a good team on this site! Marg [/QUOTE]
