Yay, help! 2nd visit, he said the same thing, and maybe medications as well as he sees my son in prison! Ok, third visit we left him in the room with my son and a play therapist or similar and he passed all his skills and was acting perfect. So he came out and told me" Your son is smart, let him grow and socialize him'! Umm, let him grow? I did and do, he makes many choices for himself, was in sports,day care,full class, (pre-k) parties, friends houses, played in the yard, went to school functions, Mc Donalds etc! I cried and wanted to show him the violent episode on camcorder, he refused and said Im the one that need help! He refused to listen to my daughter when she tried to tell him what my son does to her!

I had the other book, but have no idea what happened to it, I need to get another one, they didn't have the copy when I went.
