[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 272385, member: 1550"] Hi there. Have some questions to ask you that will help us help you. And welcome to our board. 1/Is this a biological child and does she live with both parents? Are there any psychiatric issues or substance abuse on either side of her family tree? Has she ever been physically or sexually abused or do you suspect it may have happened? 2/How was her early development? Did she take on time, make good eye contact with everyone, like to be cuddled, act appropriately (then and now) with her same age peers? Does she have friends? How does she do at school? Does she ever act as if she doesn't "get it" (as in life in general). Is she spacey at times, sometimes seeming out of it? How are her motor skills? Does she have any sensitivities to light, sound, texture, foods? Can she transition from one activity to another? What are her strengths? 3/Has she EVER been evaulated by a private neuropsychologist. in my opinion a pediatrician and counselor will not be enough for her. She most likely has some sort of disorder and she needs a complete evaluation. neuropsychologist evaluations usually take 6-10 hours, but are very thorough and usually very good. She is getting older--in my opinion it is imperative that you have her evaluated now, before the teen years and adult years. She is not acting right and you need to find out why and to help her. You may want to do a signature, like I did below. Again, a great big welcome. Good people come here :happy: [/QUOTE]
