[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 545927, member: 1514"] I have another thought altogether. When did all this start? How old was he? Where was his dad? Did daddy happen to be overseas fighting? I think that could be huge component in all this. I am not saying he doesnt have ADHD but could it be that he simply doesnt know how to deal with the PTSD of having a father who fought in two wars? That is an amazing amount of trauma for a young child. He is only 10. He had to have seen at least some of the TV videos that were everywhere and for a young child to wonder if Daddy was the one on the stretcher or ever coming back to him had to be so hard. I can only imagine what he thought to himself every night. That alone is enough to make a child act out. Even long after daddy is home safe. Look at the soldiers who are coming home with PtSD. I dont think they are the only ones. I think many of their families are having it too. [/QUOTE]
