[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 281535, member: 1550"] Hi there. in my opinion there's a lot more wrong with this child than ADHD and LDs. How is his genetic history? He sounds like he's got some serious mental illness going on along with some inappropriate behaviors. Do you know about his early development? If he's dangerous in my opinion it's better to get him into intensive therapy at a good Residential Treatment Center (RTC) than try things at home. Pulling a knife on a child at 12 is over-the-top for ADHD behavior and in my opinion signals bigger problems than have been diagnosed. If he's drinking, he could also be doing drugs (would surprise me if he wasn't). I think you have to think long and hard about treatment options. He's not a little boy anymore and soon his treatment will be entirely out of your hands--he could end up dropping out of school and in jail at this rate. If he is still out of control, with no plans when he turns 18, frankly I'd consider making him leave. He doesn't seem to be doing well in a cushy environment...I'd lay down the law. Is hub on the same page? Welcome to the board. [/QUOTE]
