[QUOTE="cakewalk, post: 296705, member: 7060"] Thank you for your support. easy child is certainly a mature young man at 13. He has wisdom like none I've seen. Yesterday we had an early counseling appointment. That goodness for "weather" because that was the entire conversation on the way to the appointment. Suz, I don't know how his appointment went. I really felt (and I may be wrong in this decision) that considering the events from the night before, my son probably had a lot to say and bounce off this doctor he apparently respects and trusts. I thought if I asked to be included yesterday, he may shut down. I'm sure difficult child had a slew of emotions from the night before, as all of us did. That being said, I will call the doctor. But, this is where I have no experience. I don't know what questions to ask. What tests? What evaluations do I request? Do I need a reason? I could tell the doctor that I want to be included in the sessions as well. I will definitely ask for a referral for a family therapist. I asked my son to come back home with me and have breakfast with the family. At first he said no but changed his mind and stayed until mid-afternoon. Baby steps. [/QUOTE]
