[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 264350, member: 3388"] The others have given you good advice. It seems from what you've written, it is more than typical teen behavior. A neuropsychologist evaluation is a great idea. Once you know what you're dealing with, you'll be able to get appropriate supports in place. I know from personal experience, that once a difficult child hits puberty, things can become much more difficult. My oldest, difficult child 1, was totally out of control when he first hit puberty - He disregarded all social "norms" (i.e. peed outside when he needed to, etc.), became aggressive and violent, especially with me (I was the source of all his problems), physically attacked a police officer, had to be put into the back of a patrol car, and sent to a psychiatric hospital. - Not a pretty picture... I'm telling you this not to scare you, but to let you know that we really are "shock proof." We will offer advice from our personal experiences. Take what you can use, disregard the rest. We won't be offended. Please keep posting! I know that the people here have helped me survive and even laugh (a sense of humor helps us stay "sane"), when all I wanted to do was run away from it all... Please let us know how things progress. Thinking of you... WFEN [/QUOTE]
