[QUOTE="helpangel, post: 617205, member: 7170"] Welcome to the site, MWM gave you good advise I once spent almost a month in a neck brace from Angel swinging her full body weight from my hair (she was around your son's age at the time) I hope leaving bruises & scratches on siblings is not a regular thing because school teachers are obligated by law to report to children's protective services if they suspect a child is being abused and from what you described if under investigation you could lose your other 2 kids for failure to protect. Not scolding it just doesn't sound like you have a paper trail of evaluations or therapists to help cover your a** if CPS becomes involved. Having kids who explode at the slightest frustration (all 3 of mine) is a toxic situation that impacts everyone exposed to it. Please seek assistance in your area to help you get this under control before he gets any bigger. Angel was 8yo first time I called the cops on her, sometimes they would assist with ambulance to get her to crisis center but usually they would help diffuse the situation, give her a pep talk and leave. Her siblings had to feel some sense of safety and when I (mom) couldn't get control of her wouldn't hesitate to call 911 and get backup when needed. My insurance company was clueless when asked for a neuropsychologist doctor, actually the developmental pediatricians they referred were of no use (only did in-uturo or preemies) my girls were 9&11 yo at the time. I got the name of a good developmental pediatrician from the place that does services for autistic kids in this area; then because insurance didn't have anyone with that doctors qualifications, authorized for that out of network doctor. Don't be surprised if have to wait a couple months to get in to start, initial evaluation will be about 6 hours done in 2-3 appointments. Nancy [/QUOTE]
