[QUOTE="myfirstandlast, post: 13380, member: 3420"] sameold, he does not have an Asperger's diagnosis, that was ruled out. I wonder about Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified because of a lot of the Aspie-like things that go on. He managed to get his book report done in school yesterday. Resource room teacher is concerned about the quality of it, but it got done and turned in. He is also not good with group work and is extremely critical of anyone he is grouped with. He knows he has a high IQ and is always asking what it is (I only tell him it is in the superior range which he has overheard anyway) and thinks very highly of himself. (And apparently, very little of others he doesn't consider his intellectual equals.) He has this vindictive complex as well. Always wanting to get revenge, retaliate against someone. Seems like he blows something out of proportion, takes an unintended slight as a personal attack, or whatever, and plots against the perp. Sometimes tries to get others to take his 'side' and help him scheme. Borderline paranoid that others are out to get him, make him look bad because he's so smart, etc. Depression because his grades are not straight A's like he thinks he deserves, anger at the school, the teacher, the other kids, for his lower grades. Nothing is HIS fault. Any flaw is due to someone else; he was rushed, someone took his pencil, the bus was late ... NEVER his fault. This eats at me because it smacks of his father. The man is impossible to talk to and of course any of his sons' issues are MY fault, too. He sees his psychiatric today after school and I am going to see if I can sit in and express where I'm at. I do not like feeling that he is such a huge stress on me and the others in our family that I'd rather he lived with his dad. I know that is not the best environment for him. Giving him more time with his dad than our visitation schedule requires, I hoped, would make things easier on us, but DS is actually worse to me the more time he spends with his dad. [/QUOTE]
