[QUOTE="BestICan, post: 222111, member: 3413"] Hi Rope, Having much younger children and different issues, I will probably not have great advice for your situation with your son. However, I think I can help a bit with how to get the most out of this board. First off, you are using a good, generic screen name and have not disclosed your location. So far, you're quite anonymous, which is great. We will always offer you support, but we can't *help* much without personal details. Please note, "personal details" are not at all the same thing as "identifying details." Would you be comfortable answering at least these questions: How old is your son: What kind of school does he attend (i.e. homeschool, public, Special Education): Does he have a diagnosis: What medications is he currently on: Is he/has he been involved with the legal system at all, such as probation or juvie: Do you have a life partner or an ex who is dealing with your son as well: Many people summarize their child in a brief sentence. For example, I might say my son is: "Gifted, but disruptive in a classroom setting." Some people might say their child is "Agressive and hostile unless they are trying to get something from me," or "Stable but dealing with some anger issues." Could you write a sentence like that describing your son: With this information, many more people will be able to give you concrete advice, or even just be able to say with confidence that they've "been there, done that" and can really sympathize with you. Could you do a brief writeup as suggested above? [/QUOTE]
