[QUOTE="gbisdunn, post: 398704"] THANKS for all the responses. A little bit more about my difficult child: At 18 months he had his first surgery for a hydroseal which is not abnormal but did have to go under. At 2 1/2 he started private speech lessons because he was not talking at all and I mean no words. At 3 he started a special needs preschool to help him with his speech and aggression. We thought he used his hands to talk with which was true but I stopped play dates when he was continually pushing kids over because he couldn't talk to them but of course I did not know that at the time. That same year he was hospitalized for dehydration due to over 25 cold sores in his mouth and out of his mouth. I get cold sores and dr. said that the first time they break out in a person it could be bad and it was. He was there for 3 nights. From 3-5 yrs of age he was in and out of doctor offices for sinus and allergy issues. Had many tests and 3 surgeries; andanoids removed with no luck, tonsils removed and then sinus surgery. Tonsil surgery went bad and he was vomitting blood so had to have it fixed. Had a reaction to the drugs and had to be revived. Thankfully, hasnt had sinus infections since. He still wears a pull up at night and has urine accidents during the day. Does not have regular BMs but is medically ok he just withholds. At school he is pulled out for speech but will probably be released soon since he has come so far and is now only working on the letter R. He is also in a group called friendship group where he works on emotional feelings and how to handle them with other peers his age. He sees a therapist privately who was the one who told us he was explosive. That has been about a year now. Our house is one big chart to help him stay structured. We try to implement plan B more then plan A but my husband struggles with that. Then I struggle with staying calm all the time and trying to keep it together. It's a lot to carry but when he has his good days and can cope or work with us he is so sweet. He rarely acts up at school and he is loved by so many kids and teachers. I realize home is his safe place but I am getting beat down. His self esteem is taking a turn for the worst too. There was mention of neurophysch testing. How do I research that? [/QUOTE]
