[QUOTE="tryingaunt, post: 728339, member: 22806"] This sounds like my son at that age, he was diagnosed at age 8 on the autism spectrum. 5th grade was terrible at best, and his psychiatric said a lot of the negative behaviors we were seeing were most likely due to puberty. Middle school was a lot better and once he reached high school, things improved. He was the same way getting him out of bed, we opted to have him on a late start, one bell later than the school day, with the first bell being a study hall for him so he wasnt missing classes. this was built into his IEP. He has since graduated and is still the same way but works not until 3pm so he can avoid the morning stress all together. Sounds like you have done all the same things we did at one time or another. It did get better for him, and us. But this really does sound more like a spectrum disorder to me, which does present as several other diagnosis. [/QUOTE]
