[QUOTE="Andy, post: 378783, member: 5096"] That is a good update! It is so hard when kids start realizing what can go wrong in life and know that they can not handle things on their own. That is sort of where my difficult child started. He had to learn that he did not have to handle these issues until he grew up (going to college, finding a job, supporting a family) and by then he would have the tools he needed to do so. There are also everyday things that kids do need to face such as crossing busy roads, taking tests, and playing with other kids. They are afraid of getting hit, failing, disappointing team mates. It is then that they learn that with the right tools (knowing when and were to cross safely, studying, good sportsmanship), they can face these challenges. I am so glad you are pressing on to find more help. Our kids have such deep thoughts that we really don't know what they are thinking. They really do need help from time to time to figure out their thoughts. A very slight cognitive problem is hard to detect but can rack havoc in the learning process. We did a neuropsychologist testing and found that difficult child at times was over focused and at other times could not focus. It was something that caused him to struggle in school but only that special testing could make sense of it. It was our psychiatrist that referred us. Isn't it great to see someone "get" your child?
