[QUOTE="tamolt, post: 94188, member: 4284"] The issues started on the first day of kindergarten. He always had problems with behaving in school - especially if the teacher was young and female. Years when he had "seasoned" teachers or males were easier. I just assumed that some new teachers didn't know how to handle "boys" and in fact several male teachers over the years actually said that. Since his behavior was good, normal at home and everywhere else I thought things were typical and he was just going to be a little harder to handle with school. In middle school things seemed to get worse OR maybe it was just teachers tolerance was less. And since he started HS the calls from school are constant. I moved him to a better school in our area in hopes that a more challenging curriculum would improve his behavior (many times I heard we think he is just bored and that is why he aggravates everyone) and even though he seems to love school I think for the social aspect he doesnt even attempt homework or studying and he could be a an A student with minimum work. We started seeing someone about a week ago and will go weekly. I am not sure if I want them to tell me this is what is wrong or if I want them to say he is just normal so :censored: it up - either answer may be more than I can handle. I guess I am so desparate I am willing to medicate him just to keep him in class without being disruptive. But then again if something really is wrong I would like him to have a handle on it before he enters the adult world. The only positive note is that for some reason he is the model employee. He works for a restuarant and in less than a year has learned several positions from training new people to reviewing orders before they go out. His work environment seems to be perfect for him.
