[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 608255, member: 1550"] Who has diagnosed him? Is he in treatment? I think maybe your son doesn't mean "I won't change" as much as "I can't change" and he probably can't just by deciding "I want to change." He is likely stuck with some neurological disorder. I scanned a few earlier posts and it says he is repeating sentences. That's only a small clue, but it could be either Tourette's Syndrome (does he have tics?) or autistic spectrum disorder/Aspergers. I don't see any signature. Can you fill us in on his background? There is also a mention of guardianship. Is he adopted and did he have a lot of chaos in his early life? Have any drugs or alcohol in his system at birth? This info alone doesn't help us to get a feel for your situation. Can you tell us more, from infancy on? Could he have been exposed to lead? I was hearing about kids who have lead in their systems today and it is not something we normally think about, but if he lived in an old house, it's a possibility and can be tested. Thanks, and I'm so sorry you are having a hard time, but I really believe your son is doing the best he can. Most of the time kids do the best they can, but if they have inborn disorders, that isn't always good enough so then they give up... [/QUOTE]
