[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 360701, member: 1550"] Agree with the neuropsychologist. And I'd be looking into Aspergers Syndrome. These are the quirky, smart kids who always seem to be square pegs in round holes and can not transition from one activity to another without raging. Although they are smart, they tend to need a lot of 1-1 attention in school situations. I have a son on the high end of the autism spectrum...he is 16 now, almost 17. He's still quirky, but he's doing much better than we dreamed because he got very early help and continued his interventions. At any rate, I'd do the neuropsychologist over a Psychologist because they do intensive testing, which usually works better than the psychologists who don't test, but implement behavioral plans and often say ODD (which isn't helpful and is usually not the root cause of the behavior). JMO :) [/QUOTE]
