[QUOTE="Ewok_1500, post: 690065, member: 20418"] I do understand that the parameters for a CD diagnosis only require the patient to display 2 of the behaviours in a 6 month period, so some children fall into that category that maybe shouldn't be there. I can't stress enough that my son isn't violent or hyperactive. He is a quiet, sweet boy whos part of the brain that controls empathy just didn't develop. He's incredibly clever, but doesn't do well at school ie he's not 'smart'. His ability to manipulate is scary. At 4yo he would cry to make you think you had hurt him and would then stop suddenly and with complete deadpan tell you to buy him chocolate (for example). The way it was explained to his teacher is that he will never understand why being disruptive in class is wrong, but he will eventually learn that if he does it, his teacher will get upset. [/QUOTE]
