[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 589999, member: 1631"] My son was violent from about the time he was 2 or 3. By 9 it was down right scary. At age 12 he pushed me down a flight of stairs. At age 7 my son was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder. He went through many hospitalizations between the age of 7 and 13. There were many times I wondered what age 15 would look like. I didn't think we would still have him living in our home. Thankfully, due to a great psychiatrist, great therapists, some great teachers (not all), and through finding the right medications (after many, many trials) he is not now violent (or very rarely and not to the old extremes). He is still a difficult child to the fullest (and probably always will be to an extent) but we are working on it. The neuro-psychiatric exam that Buddy mentioned is a very good idea. It really helps to get a full picture of what is going on with your difficult child. Welcome to our corner of the world. I hope you will find as much support here as I have. [/QUOTE]
