[QUOTE="Suliah, post: 704622, member: 21169"] Thanks for the responses so far... To answer questions-- Stressedmama: It would be a huge burden for me to take him full time without child support and a court order, because I live out of the school district. If dad would be willing to make it a court order and allow me to move his school district to my own home district then he could use the bus system. As of right now I have to take him to a daycare within the district boundaries just to get him to be picked up by the bus. And his school district, along with joint custody, are written into the divorce decree. I guess what I'm saying is that I'd be paying over $100 per week just for child care because of the school district, and I really can't afford that without help. And I wouldn't move his school district unless I knew it was permanent. JRC: I have NO idea about any of those diagnosis... He has an appointment with his psychologist next week and we will see what he says. He is very withdrawn part of the time, so it does kinda make sense... high anxiety. However I've looked into attachment disorders as well and honestly that seems to sound about right as well, with the exception that I don't know what would have caused it. He was the middle child of 3, very close together, and dad was out of town for work most of his life (so I played single parent, I was dealing with a 2 year old and pregnant and working full time during his first year of life) ... He never wants to go to dad's house, I have to coax him out of the car... Anyway, I just don't know... But if you can help me rule something out, by all means do it! [/QUOTE]
