[QUOTE="buddy, post: 524139, member: 12886"] hershey, my son has said stuff like that too, and I want to push you down the stairs (in a school with no stairs AND he got suspended for that in grade K!!! at a school designed for kids with brain injuries, lol, so dumb).... even now he will obsess about stuff like that. I block news and such things but when we were little and people didn't over react to every single thing a kid said about a weapon, this kind of comment was made a lot by kids. They dont know the seriousness of what a gun does, dont understand the permanency of death and how it affects so many people, etc... it is just a statement of frustration and wanting to solve their lack of power over things, and I am grateful the staff did not take it seriously in that sense. His overall issues clearly are serious. I dont remember, I know you are evaluating things, have you had a neuropsychologist evaluation yet??? Have all the developmental/neurological possibilities been ruled out yet? Yeah, clearly he has behavior issues, but why I am sure is your big question, right? My experience with the ER is that if there is a threat of violence or harm then, yes, he may go in....maybe others have different views though since I have only had to do it a few times. My experience of the hospital is thank God it is there, but it is not optimal since they mostly look at what is going on in their presence and dont put the big picture together like a neuropsychologist evaluation does. Kids dont act like themselves necessarily in the hospital....either worse or often, much better so the diagnosis can be based on skewed perception. But there are exceptions and some really good people who can get to the heart of things, you just have to monitor and judge for yourself if you feel it is right. There are people here who have not had my experience and got much better diagnosis from being in the hospital setting. If he is out of control and you are worried it is the best place for him to be of course. Nothing is easy which really stinks. I am so sorry this has been so intense and now you have this big transition too. Will send good vibes for you to have some answers soon. [/QUOTE]
