[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 530903, member: 2196"] I don't know if difficult child's IQ score is being added in the mix but when he was tested before, he scored very high. He was in like the 95th percentile. Unfortunately, even though he is very smart, he is functioning well below grade level standard in most areas. He is failing two classes. In math he is getting a C even though his test scores are very high. He continues to struggle daily with his social skills, both with his peers and other adults. I am keeping in close contact with his main teacher each week and she consistently reports that difficult child's lack of social skills is quite problematic in the classroom. He needs a social skills group badly. Although his new medication is helping him focus a little bit more, he is still having a hard time staying on task. His teacher reports he is constantly staring off into space and biting his nails. He needs constant redirection. It's not as bad as it was before the medications, but it's still bad. He does not do well with transitions and he will be going to middle school next year. I am afraid he may not handle it well. Plus with the harder academics, I just don't see him being very successful without some help. [/QUOTE]
