[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 575159, member: 1550"] I would dump the psychologist who doesn't listen. If a psychologist doesn't listen, he certainly can't be of any help. I think your daughter needs a full evaluation and I'd go to a neuropsychologist for her. Something is going on with her and she isn't going to respond to traditional parenting and she probably needs interventions to help her. These can start even before age three and the earlier, the better the prognosis. I can not diagnose, but she sounds spectrumish to me. At any rate, I'd definitely take her to somebody more credentialed than even a psychologist. A neuropsychologist is a psychologist with special training in the brain and they tend to do a lot of helpful testing that can pinpoint why certain behaviors happen...and then direct you to the right sort of help. I doubt if it's behavioral therapy that she needs...it sounds more like she is differently wired and needs to learn how to function is what may be a confusing world for her. And that's not because of your family!!! Or your parenting...not your fault. [/QUOTE]
