[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 637215, member: 1514"] Malika I dont know if you are reading me or not but I want to try anyway. If not, maybe someone else can get my message to you. I am so sorry about what is happening with J. I have always thought he sounded like an adorable little boy. One thing I have always said is that of all the special kids I have seen, they all seem to be adorable which is a huge plus for them because it keeps us from killing them! He seems like a very concrete learner. If I remember right he is about a year younger than my oldest granddaughter. She has always had a really hard time with reading and writing but this year she was diagnosed with ADD and put on Adderal and suddenly she is soaring. This isnt to say J needs Adderal but it could be that either another year will make a difference OR there is another medication out there that he can take and will help him. Do they have Montessori schools in the UK? Maybe he would do better in a school like that because they are more based on the child...or should I say child led. If the child is great at math or whatever, they can move on ahead while staying behind picking up where they need it. Classes dont tend to be graded. If J does need medication then maybe you could possibly look into something called a neuropsychopharmacologist. They are supposed to be the best at looking into psychiatric medications. I dont know where you would find one overseas but they have them here in NC at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. [/QUOTE]
