[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 458170, member: 1550"] Hi there and welcome to the board. I'm also wondering if there is more going on than ADHD. Also, although you are used to him, in my opinion you have to understand that he IS disrupting the class. Maybe he can't sit still...I totally believe that he can't, but it's still disruptive. I think that the fact that he is going into an alternative classroom is a good idea. I also think it would be a good idea to take him to a neuropsychologist who will go beyond the Connor's test. That alone is not really definitive. Kids with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and bipolar also score high on the Connors. A neuropsychologist is a good diagnostician who covers every area of development and behavior. I think it's worthwhile. I wouldn't trust just a pediatrician to diagnose a childhood disorder like ADHD. It really isn't their specialty. Keep us posted on his progress and good luck! [/QUOTE]
