[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 446513, member: 1514"] Hi welcome to the board! I do think you will find this place a source of comfort in the very difficult seas of raising a difficult child. I hope you can do something legally to get your sister out of your lives and leave your little boy alone. That will help a lot. I would also recommend getting your little boy into a child psychiatrist and a child therapist instead of just the pediatrician. pediatrician's are great for normal stuff but they are out of their league with this stuff. I also agree with the above posters who feel that there is something more at play here than simple ADHD. If your sister has bipolar, well that is genetic and her kids have a chance of inheriting that. Also if she drank or did drugs while she was pregnant, that isnt good either. You really need a good diagnostician to help you tease out what is going on but it can take a while to do this. Meanwhile do read some books on kids like ours. The Explosive Child is liked here and so are the Love and Logic books. I think there is also one called What Your Explosive Child is Trying to Tell You that I havent read but I have been told is good. Good luck and keep posting! [/QUOTE]
