[QUOTE="Shari, post: 177072, member: 1848"] He came home and cried to daddy for a while. And he was truly upset. Came to daddy and told him if he hurts people, they might take him away. Matter of factly, but very sad. Daddy said well, mommy was probably angry when she said that, but its true. When you get bigger, that could happen. And he bawled some more. He spent most of the night with daddy, thank goodness. But not 20 minutes later he was back to trying to whap up on easy child. When I ask why he does this, he doesn't know. He generally truly gets upset about it, too. He knows he's bad, he wants to be good, but he can't "turn off his motor that drives him to be like that" is what he says. Again, the "motor" is something he's talked about for several years. He rode with me to take easy child 2 to her friends' house to spend the night and fell asleep on the way home. (I drove a little slow and a little farther to allow it to happen). It was a little early, but I don't care. Not tonight. His DevPed has emailed me this evening. She's got a new list of medications for me to think about. At least she had the presence to say his reaction to medications hasn't been positive, so she understands if I chose to not go that route at this time (gee, ya think?) . Abilify, INvega are supposed to be simliar to Risperdal, which he is responding too. Seroquel and Thorazine, Lamictal and Lithium were the others she tossed out there for me to think on. She also mentioned perhaps a behavior analysis program. That's a new one that I have not heard of, so I asked her to clarify that. We have the M-tabs now, too. We just got those. [/QUOTE]
