[QUOTE="Masta, post: 63236, member: 308"] To answer Dammit janets question: i have had many doctors over the years suggest a personality disorder may be present but for some reason no doctor will give her that "label" till she turned 18yr old, because "once you have a label like that it will make your life harder and it will follow you everywhere" was what i was told.. She did a MMPI last year but it was a kid version (administered by the State because i requested it). An adult version was to be administered but wont happen now that she is leaving care. The self contained classroom pychologist (who has watched my difficult child for several years now at school and held weekly therapy sessions with the girls in the classroom) suggested right before school got out in May that difficult child shows signs of having a personality disorder. He was the one who suggested she take another MMPI test this November. This was said in front of caseworker, foster mom and teacher. we would never discuss any mental health stuff in front of difficult child, she would start argueing if we did, because she has no insight to her problems so she claims im trying to fix something that is not broken. i sure hope the baby doesnt have mental health problems.
