[QUOTE="Needsupport, post: 184426, member: 5730"] My son has been caught playing with-matches, (3 times total in one month. Never before.) even after talking to him & showing him photos on the internet of people & homes that have been burnt. He steals food from the cabinets & hides it in his room. I'm always finding empty pop cans in his drawers, empyt cracker boxes, chip bags. On more than one occassion I've found empty 1/2 gallon ice cream boxes under his bed. I can't seem to break him of this no matter what I do. I try to limit the amount of snacky food I buy because of this. He notices woman. He cut out pictures of naked woman at daycare (nothing showed but you could tell they were naked, like in the lotion adds). When asked why he said that he likes to look at naked woman. I've had to lock out channels on the TV because he was caught watching Girls Gone Wild. He doesn't get sexually explicit or anything, but again, I know that some of these are signs of bi-polar so am keeping a watch on it. The dr did mention that if the child is bi-polar the stimulants used to treat ADHD could aggrevate the bi-polar symptoms. I just feel like screaming! I want easy answers & fast solutions & with what we're dealing with those just aren't available! Some days I just don't feel that I can do it anymore. But I try to remind myself that if it's this hard for me it has to be even harder for my son... [/QUOTE]
