I am at a loss when it comes to my son...
I left my sons father a little over a year ago which one in my situation would think that it would help the boy. My son has been diagnosed ADHD which he originally took Focalin, Adderall, Concerta, Vyvanse and the latest medication would be Strattera. (which is doing nothing by the way) He has also been diagnsed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) and I do believe the diagnoses will become more complicated as I continue to see these doctors. Overall, he is a good boy and he tries. His behavior is not getting better no matter what we try to implement. Positive or negative, he does not react to it any different. I am starting to find that it is as if he does not understand cause and effect. He blames everyone but himself for his actions but at the same time is very hard on himself when he does do something wrong. For intance: He thought it was a good idea to hit his teacher yesterday. Depressed with what he did because he loves this woman and blaming her for his actions. She was trying to send him to another class because he was being disruptive again (this is the story of my life). Thankfully the school has gotten very much involved with him. They are not trying to take him out of his regular class because they actually believe he can be tested and moved up a grade, so they are just trying to give him some anger outlets. So the question is, what do you do when you have no other ideas on discipline for this type of child. I was checking my area for behavior camps, but they charge an arm and a leg... Not having a job because the school kept pulling me out of work and I got fired paying these prices for the camps is a bit much. Can churches help? I have never asked anyone for help before so I am a little clueless...
I really am at a loss. I thought he would eventually grow out of it. It is strange how a PERFECT baby just doesn't grow out of their terrible two's. It is also very strange how these types of disorders become more and more the norm in today's society. I do not believe we are raising our children properly anymore. medications that are supposed to help children give them strange disorders nowadays and doctors are going nutty with the labeling of these children. Thanks to all of this labeling now, children are getting segragated from other children. Half of the school knows of my sons condition and now he is singled out. This is going to follow him for the rest of his life. Poor thing... He is in a vicious circle and I do not know what to do to help him out of it.
