[QUOTE="Pookybear66, post: 199060, member: 5957"] Kate-Welcome! I just joined a few days ago. My ds is 8 1/2 with learning issues diagnosis by school. We have not yet done the psychiatric evaluation. He also has major frustration issues and I also got the recommendation from this board to read "The Explosive Child". I am about 1/2 way through and so far it is wonderful. Basically it says that the difficult child CANNOT rather than will not change their behavior/way of thinking. They get deadlocked into being frustrated. I am finding it easier to deal with ds's frustration/screaming if I consider it his coping mechanism. I don't really have any other advice to offer on the docs or medications route as we have not done this. Mostly wanted to say hang in there. There is always room for one more on this boat! [/QUOTE]
