[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 549093, member: 11847"] Look into spychological evaluation, neuro-psychological evaluation, psycho-educational evaluation. A lot swear by the neuro-psychiatric but you have to see what is available in your area. Your very first step though should be to talk to his pediatrician. That's what I did for V and she was quite helpful. Right now, you are at the stage where you see the problems it causes in your life. As you pregress in the understanding of you difficult child's underlying issues, you will be able to conceptualize the problems better, understand where it's coming from and then deal with it better. Even if you don't end up with a firm diagnosis for your difficult child (he is so young), you will gain knowledge and that will be a HUGE help. You can also look into speech and Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation. Those are usually easy to schedule and could reveal a lot. Our first helpful econsultation was the Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation. And that gave us other clueand little by little we are gathering the pieces of the puzzle. Since your difficult child is not quite 5, I assume he will enter K in 1 year. See it as a whole year of exploration and learning of his issues. As you learn, you'll be able to start teaching new skills to him. The forum will guide you in your journey. [/QUOTE]
