[QUOTE="MyHrt31, post: 256870, member: 6666"] Thanks again to each of you for these suggestions. klmno, I will definitely check out the Special Education attorney. I'm to that point where I need legal advice because the psychologist is doing all she can, really she is. She's awesome! She has even come with me to IEP meetings in the past and told the teachers that they were not allowed to call me at work (it worked for a few weeks but after that, it all went to heck, lol). I have contacted a mental health advocate for this region and I will definitely call her tomorrow before the meeting to see if she can offer any suggestions. I defnitely need to do more research!! DDD, My difficult child's behaviors are similar at home but on a very mild level. He's got the anger and irritability and occasionally he throws things but he does not try to hurt me. He's made it look like he was coming at me, but he's never actually tried to harm me. The more people that are around, the more hard it is to control him. For instance, we could be sitting around watching a movie (just the two of us) and a visitor would come over. All of a sudden, he's bouncing off the furniture and talking a hundred miles a minute. I'll ask him to stop interupting and he'll get angry but he doesn't hit anyone or throw anything. Its MUCH worse at school and pretty much in all public settings. He freaks out and has a hard time concentrating. After his hospital stay, he did so well. The new medication (Invega) seemed to work great! Over the last few weeks, he has become increasingly more anxious and irritable so this situation with school is no big surprise for me. He started off at the behavioral school not saying ANY bad words and now he's cursing every other word (hmm.. guess where he's getting all of this, certainly not at home). I honestly feel that this has to do with his medications not being as effective anymore and the environment that this SO CALLED school provides for him.
