[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 700162, member: 1550"] Get him tested by a neuropsychologist. Red flags everywhere for autism (they don't tolerate crowds and different places and need sameness and also need intervetions.) Did he have and early speech delays or other issues, even if they resolved. I would not punish him. He isn't misbehaving. Punishment will make him feel badly about himself, but won't change how he is unable to deal with school one bit. I don't believe that his doctors have diagnosed him right. Certainly, he is no better. Time to move o to a neuropsycologist in my opinion. He needs a more intensive evaluation and better suggestions on how to help him. Trust me, if you don't do it now, youll regret it later. This is not him being bad. It is not just ADHD. I dont know how an IEP can fix his real fear of school. You need more. I hope you go for it. I disagree that he needs to go to regular school. Some kids CAN'T. Teachers, Special Education or not, do not really know how to handle this degree of school fear and it is unlikely he is learning or making friends there. Just because most kids can learn in a structured classroom doesn't mean every child can. And what about you? You matter too. Can you handle the stress? Do you have other kids? Good luck! Please...do this for your son...and yourself. I had to do it. Wasn't easy but the results were amazing. Was worth it. [/QUOTE]
