[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 592143, member: 1550"] Ok, well, I do see why he was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), but he has traits that aren't Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) too. The meanness is NOT Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). You say you have personality disorders and bipolar in the family. Who knows what may have fallen into his mix? Usually kids have more than one diagnosis. I have never met a mean Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) child, but maybe there are some, but it sounds more to me (a layperson mom) like maybe a very young developing personality problem that needs perhaps a different type of therapy rather than behavioral because that is not working (and doesn't usually work with our differently wired kids). Actually, I think your son's diagnosis DOES matter because Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) interventions are different from interventions for other disorders. All kids do not benefit from the same interventions. You may want to take him to a neuropsychologist for an update. Two years old is a long time ago. I wish you luck. I think you have a complicated kiddo with a complicated DNA. I hope you can find somebody who gels with him so that you and your husband and son can get help and peace of mind. I would want a second opinion on the ticks to see if he maybe has Tourettes. [/QUOTE]
