[QUOTE="combat_parent, post: 280752, member: 7570"] yes he has had the neuropsychologist evaluation done. He was diagnosed at a pediatric center specializing in ADHD, ODD, ADD and such. During the initial evaluation he was seen and observed by seven different doctors. The ADHD is apparent in his inability to sit still or to stay focased for any length of time. Things need to be broken down for him in steps if not it is to overwhelming for him. The ODD is what concerns me the most. When he gets angry he mumbles under his breath and it is not usually very nice. He is argumentive with his teachers and becomes rude and belegerant so then it escalates and then he is just completly uncontrollable for them. He loves to antagonize and push peoples buttons and then when he gets in trouble it is always someone else's fault. he has his good days where he is 100% on and does very well and is proud of himself. He has recieved many planning sheets and detentions. He has many issues at school making friends for the most part people dont want to be around him because of the way he acts. Home isnt too bad. I have found with him when he starts to show signs of frustration and anger I back off for a little while and give him time and then we go back to whatever it was that we were doing( usually homework or household chores) and he is able to complete it. At home he likes to push buttons too, but at home we are able to ignore that behavior and not react to it and I would say 7 times out of ten he stops the other three is when we do end up having to step in and give him a place where there is nothing he can throw or push around till he calms down and that usually works. When it doesnt work we are listening to how unfair everything is because he didnt do anything and everyone is always picking on him. School has been very difficult for yes my son is usually at the bottom of things but he also endures being picked on and the school has told us right out that anything my son says another child has done or said to him will not be believed and that the teachers and staff didnt have to see or hear anything my son has done, any student comming to them with something would be believed and my son would recieve a planning sheet and detention.

Academically he does well except for math. He has to work really hard at math and is a source of great frustration and we usually had to battle with him for the better part of the night to do his homework. so a little background:) will end for now this one could possibly turn into a thesis...combat_parent [/QUOTE]
