[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 502614"] Why won't the neuropsychologist see him? Where did all the other diagnosis's come from? We've had that whole alphabet at one time or another and it took a GREAT PhD child Psychologist to see that the REAL problem was Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). That REPLACES the previous diagnosis's not just added to the soup. It sounds like you need to get an advocate involved ASAP. After 10 suspensions, they are supposed to hold a manifestation hearing to determine if the behaviors are part of his disability. If it is, they need to develop (or revise) a behavior plan that WORKS. They are even legally allowed to make special exceptions to the school discipline policy for kids with IEP's. Does he even HAVE a behavior plan as part of his IEP? YOU can request a manifestation hearing as well and discuss these issues.....BUT......get an advocate!!! Can you give us examples of specific situations and how they started and how your son reacted? Putting the behaviors into perspective can sometimes lead to answers. You really need to read The Explosive Child by Ross Greene as well as What Your Explosive Child Is Trying To Tell You by Dr. Doug Riley. I think you will find some interesting answers through Dr. Greene's process and some interesting insight from Dr. Riley's book. There IS hope. You just need to get to the real root of the problem. So far, it sounds like you're surrounded by incompetence. [/QUOTE]
