[QUOTE="sandman3, post: 131894, member: 4719"] Wow April, That's alot of information. I'm new here also, but these gals have been wonderfully supportive and helpful and I know you'll find the same! Your DS sounds alot like mine: immature, angry, nothing is fair, etc.... Have you looked into a Major medical facility for him to be evaluated? The hard thing is them being away from home, but the great thing is the hospital works with a whole team of caregivers: psychiatric's, social workers, educators, etc... to come up with a "plan" for the child based on everything you tell them and everything they observe during the stay. They do a wide variety of testing, can do genetic testing, try tweaking medications, set you up with community support for when he gets home, and work directly with your school to create an appropriate IEP, environment and educational goals.....the whole kit a kaboodle! Now, I'm not saying it's perfect and I don't know if it's right for your family, but might be worth looking into for you. I see you don't live that far from me, PM me if you want a little more info and I'll be happy to oblige. I hope you have a better day! [/QUOTE]
