[QUOTE="Autismkids, post: 333738, member: 8756"] I don't have a teen yet, but I'm not far from my teens. I remember I always used to yell at my father that my brain wouldn't be fully developed until age 25. I don't know if that helped him at all, but I try to remember that with my little man. Teens are a psycho stage even in typical kids, but then we have the added issues. Our kids are 10 years apart, but I think I know how you feel. My little man went through a serious aggressive stage this past summer. So many things changed, and I could never figure out what the breaking point was. One day I'd had enough and I actually brought him to the psychiatric hospital, but he was too young for them to help (he was almost 5). I left with no help, and no phone numbers. When I got home, I was in tears because I couldn't believe I was going to leave my baby there just to get some peace. I felt like **** as I tucked him in thinking there was a chance he wouldn't have been home that night. It's January and he still has not recovered from whatever happened this past summer (preschool ended, he passed his milk challenge, and a few other things happened). We now see his neuro, sleep Dr, and pulmonologist quite often because I *know* that there is something medically underlying that we're not treating. I just found a new neuro and gave her enough symptoms to order an MRI. While nothing came up diagnostically important, his cerebellum (sp?) is low which could account for his low muscle tone and poor fine motor skills. I'm now looking for a third neuro to scrutinize the MRI results for any evidence of brain damage. He's been beating his head since he was a newborn. Anyway, sorry I went off here. Sending positive thoughts your way... [/QUOTE]
