[QUOTE="Dara, post: 109472, member: 3572"] Marguerite, I think you misunderstood how I am and feel about my son. I am venting here but that doesnt mean that that is how I am around him. I dont look at him as a child out to get me. I know the facts about him and what we and the doctors have said. He has developmental delays and that is just a small part of the problem here. He is also suspected to have ODD. He has severe behavioral issues at home and always has since the beginning. IT is hard to describe without you meeting him and seeing what we are talking about. He is very stubborn, likes to be in control of situations. His language is delayed but not in the way everyone is describing. He has language, he has sentences and he has always had the ability to communicate his wants and needs. The problem lies in what he understands in the conversation and his ability to converse. His language has stagnated it seems for some time now. his language skills are about the age of a 2 year old. I say this comparing what I have seen with kids his age working in the preschool and is used just to give an example of where his skills are. He is a very interesting, unique and quirky chil and none of that is meant in any negative way. A lot of the time, his behavioral issues stop him from moving forward so we have 2 sides of a problem working against each other so it is very hard to figure out how to best help him. When I come here I am venting. Yes, there are days when I wonder which one of us is making it out alive but for the most part I have my sense of humor about me and just deal with it [/QUOTE]
