[QUOTE="amy1129, post: 427081, member: 11795"] I have not followed up with pedi yet, they are so far removed from this. I think because my insurance doesnt require pre certifications they just handed me a list of names last july at his check up. The social worker did ask if we have ever had a neuropshych done or any other testing and I said no. she said that might a step we take. I did go to a workshop of dr greenes and his program worked for about 2 weeks at the most. I mentioned this to the SW and she doesnt agree with dr greenes ways, she feels like we are giving my son the control but letting him brainstorm solutions. Example, dr greene said to pick something that happens alot, ok teeth brush time. He always fights us, either falls to the ground screaming no, runs to his room slamming door saying no....so i approached my son, you know you get mad at us when we ask you to brush your teeth? well how about me and you think of some ways to get your teeth brushed without you getting mad. he thought about it and said stand with me while i do it. In my head, i was like "thats it". I said ok, so if mommy or daddy stands with you, you will do it without getting mad. he said yup and it worked, then it didnt. SW says thats letting him control the situation and he is controlling you by having you stand next to him to do such a task that doesnt require me to be there. I kinda agree with her, and since it isnt working anymore i dont know where else to turn. [/QUOTE]
