[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 531055"] I third the need for further assessments. Your son sounds very much like he might be on the autism spectrum so definitely make sure they test (not screen) him for that. A neuropsychologist or developmental psychologist would be the most thorough. I also agree with Liahona that a THOROUGH Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation is called for. They will help figure out what all his "sensory issues" are and help him and you deal with them. The one we finally found was AWESOME and found things that no one even knew were there. Our neuropsychologist was also worth the waiting time (7 months from call to actual appointment). These two evaluations and the work the Occupational Therapist (OT) did have done wonders. You might also want to have those same professionals evaluate your daughter. I also have twins and even though they are as opposite as night and day, they both have similar issues that manifest in very different ways. Welcome to our little "family". You will find the most wonderful support here. [/QUOTE]
