[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 613582, member: 1550"] Hi there. I agree. More is going on than ADHD in my opinion. Can you please tell us more about this child's very early years? Was his mother wreckless, lots of boyfriends around? Maybe somebody who abused him that you or even Mom doesn't know about? Drugs or alcohol use in her house? Strangers coming and going? Anyone could have sexually abused him, even a babysitter. He may have even forgotten it, but something isn't right, although not sure what. My first thought is a form of autism, but that would not explain the sexuality so, even if he's on the spectrum, seems like more than that is going on than that too. Are there psychiatric problems on either side of his DNA, as they are hereditary? A suggestion: In case he is being spanked, I wouldn't do that. He is already too wild and that won't help him. You're right...sounds like he can't control himself and should not be punished in a heavy handed way. On the other hand, I would agree again that you can NEVER leave him alone with any other child, not just your youngest. We lived with an adopted child who sexually acted out on my two youngest kids and they were so afraid of him that they didn't tell us. We had no idea it was going on and I still feel very guilty about that. You don't want him doing that even at night. I'd put an alarm on his door at night or else have your son sleep with you in your room and lock door. If he touches your son, they could both be in danger of removal by CPS. If you have a pet, be careful as well. Ever have him evaluated by a neuropsychologist? That would be my first suggestion. It's a good start as opposed to just play therapy which isn't helping him. Have you heard of attachment disorder, which happens to some kids with very chaotic beginnings? [/QUOTE]
