[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 458520, member: 1550"] I'm thinking maybe autistic spectrum disorder. That would be a good reason for a cognitive delay...I know that too well. Would also be why she doesn't seem bothered by not having a lot of friends or not having her electronics (although some spectrum kids rage if their electronics are removed). I think she needs more evaluating and I recommend a neuropsychologist. I also agree that drugs happen even when a kid is always home. My daughter once used drugs and she was practically glued to the house. She was even homeschooled. She did drugs when we were sleeping and she got them in all sorts of creative ways. She was older, but still...I think first things first and she needs a fresh evaluation so that it is clearer what is going on. My son's full diagnosis is autistic spectrum disorder (in his case it is high functioning) and cognitive disorder not otherwise specified, although his IQ is normal. He still has a hard time completing his work and doing more than one thing at a time. If this were my kid, I'd dump the therapist. I think he's looking in the wrong direction for the problem and so far his methods haven't improved things anyway. Regular therapists are not really educated to diagnose disorders. [/QUOTE]
