[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 466472"] Welcome to the board. As far as the timeline for school assessments, did you put the request in writing. Legally, they have 45 days from the day you request/authorize the evaluations. Not sure if that applies to verbal-only requests so that's why I'm asking. I am also a single parent and glad I am. "Sperm donor" took off before my boys were born and we haven't heard from him since. He is also one of those that would have been a third child. I also don't have to worry about "dueling" parenting styles. I totally understand the lack of support in raising difficult kids though. There are days I am amazed I still have hair. LOL HaoZi gave you some GREAT advice. Our county case manage through our Human Services Dept has been a HUGE help. It sounds like you need wrap-around services as well as respite. Sometimes, in some areas anyway, respite can be in-home, kind of like a government paid babysitter. Look for a neuropsychologist in your area. There are some other threads going right now that might have some other good ideas for you. {{{{(((HUGS)))}}}} to you hon. [/QUOTE]
