[QUOTE="Stacy G., post: 29702, member: 3584"] Wow! I feel like i should be paying you guys. I will make appointment on Monday for Adam to see a psychiatrist. To answer a few questions y'all had. Adam is a very smart kid, since he was in 5th grade he has tested at the college level on the state tests they take every year. Does he make good grades now? No! And he is more than capable but also more than lazy so I guess the two don't mix. As far as some of the trouble he gets into. Talking in class Stealing soda in the lunchroom Throwing a notebook across the hall while walking to class which hit a teacher on the ankle, it was intended to get his friends' attention. Putting a paint brush in a gallon of soap which ruined the soap. Got banned from the local bowling ally for throwing rocks on the putting course. Smoking cigs. Smoking pot. He is constantly tearing stuff up in the house; shooting a hole in the window with a BB gun (took it away), big holes in the walls, breaks many household objects. Of course all of those are accidents. Skipping school. Getting suspended (many times) & us not knowing because he deleted the message on the answering machine before we heard it. Argues with his sister (13) CONSTANTLY!!! There's much more I'm sure, but I'm tired just reading back over it. As far as my youngest, bless her heart, she's worried about her mom. I do spend time with her & talk to her about things. She needs this time to be a kid, not worry about the trouble her brothers are getting into. Thankfully we have a pretty close relationship & she comes to me with her problems. I am working extra hard to ensure that she knows that she is loved & appreciated through all this. Again, thank y'all. I will be reading this board on a regular basis now that I found it & will keep y'all updated. Stacy [/QUOTE]
