[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 306204, member: 1550"] Oh, ML, how kind of you...I think :happy::raspberry-tounge:. What people don't realize is that Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) is NOT the end of the world. I'm not upset that George probably has it. I know how well the kids can do because of my sixteen year old. I care that M. is ignoring even the advice of experts. Hey, you came to this board and I'm just a layperson with an opinion. But she's hearing this from professionals and still ignoring it. There is nothing I can do about M. or my timid son (see his history, he's the first one). He has such bad anxiety and such a bad social phobia that I believe he could be borderline Aspergers, although his social skills are adequate (not good, but adequate) when he forces himself to appy them, like at work. So I'm hardly shocked that this grandchild has been born with problems. In M's family there is depression and substance abuse. On my side of the family, there are all sorts of weird neurological and psychiatric disorders. I just hope George gets help before he's much older. But being a grandma only that M. doesn't like and who lives a state away...nothing I can do but vent. I'm glad your son has been helped :happy: [/QUOTE]
