[QUOTE="SeekingSerenity, post: 83627, member: 4161"] 1. He was diagnosis by a psychiatrist at age 4. 2. My brother was mentally ill and I've been treated for depression for several yrs. 3. Yes he did have major speech and motor delays. He's been in speech therapy since he was 3 and was in occupational therapy up until about a year ago. 4. We've had lots of problems with his interaction with other children. His social skills are very much behind what they should be. 5. He does make unusual noises sometimes and moves his hands alot. 6. He's in the 5th grade but he's working at about a 2nd to 3rd grade level. The school he was in the last 2 yrs didn't help him at all. I honestly believe they just didn't want to fool with him and they wanted to get rid of him quickly when I mentioned the word discrimination because they didn't want him going on any school field trips. Our last IEP last yr they told me they thought it would be best for him to be in a CDC class and he did start it this yr but the teacher called me a couple of weeks ago and said that he's too far ahead of the other children in that class and she agreed with what I've been saying all along. He has the potential to learn if we can get a handle on his behavior issues and his social skills. Right now he's only in the CDC for an hour a day with the rest of the time in regular class and resource. Debbie [/QUOTE]
