[QUOTE="Christy, post: 287922, member: 225"] Welcome to the site. You've found a great place to come for support and valuable insight. Has the school done any testing or developed an iep for your grandson. A behavior intervention plan (bip) can be developed by the school as a way to handle outburst that occur and more importantly structure the situation to minimize the chance of an outburst. Since you say that your grandson does better in the home, the school environment may be triggering the outbursts and it's may be possible for the school to take measures to reduce this stress with accommodations. What medication did the doctor prescribe? Mood stabilizers take time to get to therapeutic levels. Also, if bipolar disorder is suspected, then it would be wise to stay away form ADHD (stimulate) medications as they can cause the behaviors you are seeing in a bipolar child. Good luck to you, Christy [/QUOTE]
