[QUOTE="jakobsmama, post: 324818, member: 8496"] Thanks for all that. My son was assessed by a psychologist through the school board. She worked with him over a period of a few weeks. I have been doing my research and CD is a common diagnoses in kids between 7 and 16. He fits all the symptoms and behaviors of it and ADHD. I am getting a second opinion but it takes 6 to 9 months to get in to the doctor that my medical will pay for. A neuropsyche isn't covered and can cost more than 2500 dollars in Alberta. I am a single mother on a modest income so paying for second third and fourth opionions isn't really a thing I can do. I have my son on herbals prescribed by his naturopath who did an assessment with a machine that tests through pressure points. We found he was allergic to dairy through this as well as having a GABA deficiency. I don't know what difficult child's are so hopefully someone can enlighten me because trying to find it on the FAQs is slim to none. I know what Asperger's is and that is not my son. He fits ODD, ADHD and mild CD on the nose so I'm pretty positive the psychologist got it right. The good thing is that in Canada my son fits the disability criteria for federal and provincial assistance to help me pay for all of the things he needs. Like therapy, accupuncture, herbals and any other program. Thanks for the book recomendations I'll pick it up tonight. He does have sensitive hearing and can't handle if anything is extremely loud like at the movies. He is learning at a grade 1 or 2 level. He finds reading extremely painful and I'm sure he has mild Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) as well. He doesn't like other people in his space. He relates well to children younger than him but kids his age and older are difficult. I have ADD and depression and anxiety disorder. His father is Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) and a drug abuser hence the non-involvement. He lies all the time, he's deceitful and getting very good at it. The fortunate part is that I recognize it for what it is but I hate that I can't trust him. The herbals seem to be working to a degree but there's a long road ahead of us. [/QUOTE]
