[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 758317, member: 18958"] I don't understand why your health insurance wouldn't pay for something that is medically necessary. This would be hard for me to take.. There is a book called The Explosive Child. I haven't read it but many parents here have. The author's first name I think is Ross. I can't remember the last name, but if you do a search here on this site you will find it. I don't understand either the attitude of the police. If your son is setting fires and doing other physically violent things, this puts everybody at risk. I wonder if you could be helped by a Family Attorney, to explore options. I could think of involving CPS to try to get a specialized foster home for your older son, but that would open the door to making your younger vulnerable. I have read on the internet that there are parents who surrender their parental rights so that their child can get the treatment paid for that they require. There are organizations like Boys Town that take children that act out like this. I am wondering if something is wrong with his brain. That's why I mentioned neurofeedback which involves a diagnostic "mapping" of the brain and a training program (through use of feedback through movies or video games.) It is approved to treat ADHD and seems to be effective for many other issues. There is a training organization and clinic called eeginfo that has very good explanations of the treatment. They also have a story about their young son who had problems and was greatly helped. The only other option I can think of right now is an expressive arts, experiential program of therapy. In particular something like Equine Therapy with horses. There is a sliding scale. if there is a facility near you. Horses help kids and people settle themselves. And you mention your children are highly creative. Is your son working with art materials now? What about martial arts, to channel his energy and aggression in a constructive way? In my experience these teachers can be gifted to help guide kids like ours. My son loved Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Capoiera. There will be others around shortly. All of us help each other. No single one of us may have "the" answer but little by little, by being together and working this through, we find a way through. I want to tell you again how sorry I am you have to deal with something so very hard. [/QUOTE]
