Hi and welcome!


Yes, he does sound spectrum-sh. Or perhaps he's got a mood disorder mixed in there. Definitely, ADHD with all that activity. I love the visual of a handstand while he's watching TV! Definitely, you have to keep him busy. Lots of sports, even two or three teams, although it will wear you out, too!

So sorry your husband does not agree that there is something going on.  It is so typical of spouses (usually the men) to get their ego in the way. My husband was the same way. Oh, no, not MY son! We lost a few yrs of intervention that way. :(

Your son sounds very gifted. I would start with the school counselor and set up a meeting to have him tested. Then meet with the teachers and see if they have any recommendations for therapists who also do testing.

Good luck!
