[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 687735, member: 16024"] I'm so sorry for you, Roxana, and especially for SS6. You could stagger bedtimes with the younger one going to bed first, and maybe allowing him to have his MP3 player in bed until the 10yo goes to bed (since there was no reason for his to be taken away). You could have a switch off--every other night one of them gets time with dad before bed while the other gets his time the next night. You could read with the other one if they would let you. Experiment and see what works best. I wouldn't push the boys to spend any more time together, especially for the bedtime routine. The 6yo needs to be protected from the situation as much as possible. I think this is the most important thing right now. I would push for the neuropsychiatric work-up. Push dad and push the psychiatrist. I hope someone comes along who can address the question about giving the ADHD medications before the evaluation. Sounds wrong to me, but I don't know for sure. I hope more people will come along with ideas. Apple [/QUOTE]
