[QUOTE="Yem1971, post: 586437, member: 16115"] He has never saw a neuropsychologist, this is the first person has ever saw. He was raised by his dad(my boyfriend) and bio mom and lived with them until he was around 12. There was a lot of drama and chaos in that home, arguing, filthy living conditions. After that at age 12, he moved in with me and his father. I was told she did not drink when she was pregnant with him, but i know she was drinking when his older brother was three and that would have been around the time he was born...so maybe they are trying to cover it up? His mom sees him about once a month for a few hours, his older sibs have a few little quirks but everyone does, nothing like him though. It's extremely frustrating, I'm not entirely selfish, this isn't just about my comfort. I feel like I'm the only one that wants to get him help. No one else thinks anything is wrong with him. I am already taking the heat as the bad guy, if I bring anything up I'm a jerk..is there any way to discipline a child like this? He is extremely intelligent. He can get straight a and b grades if he applies himself, could he get great grades and still have autism or fetal alcohol syndrome? What can I do for him if no one else cares? How does one handle discipline with this type of young man? [/QUOTE]
