[QUOTE="ready2run, post: 489241, member: 11339"] yes, we have to do it because of psychiatrist. not to hold our spot(that i know of but maybe...) but because when we get there he will not help us if we didn't follow the recommended steps and then they might drop us as 'unwilling' to participate or at the very least we will be told again to do the behaviour therapy before he can move forward with other treatments. so basically if they tell you to do it, you have to and if you don't you will be denied access to possible things in the future that might be helpful. i highly doubt difficult child will even co-operate at all anyways, it is a waste of time for us and for the behaviour therapist. i think maybe bt could work if his medications were fixed first but in the mean time the services could go to someone who actually wants/needs them, you know? difficult child is so unwilling to learn from us that he just ignores things. yesterday he says to me, "mom, did you know she is for a girl and he is for a boy? That's what EA said. how come you never told me that?" DUH, i've been saying that for FIVE YEARS!!!! and yes doctors here do drop you if you don't book regular appointments. we had an issue with difficult child's heart last year and booked an appointment with the pediatrician. his secretary went off on me for not bringing him in for two years and said that was neglect and why should she book me in now when i obviously didn't care about his needs before this came up. meanwhile we had just seen the pediatrician three weeks before that as he was collaberating with psychiatrist and they share an office so he was attending our psychiatrist appointments as well becaus difficult child is so little and psychiatrist wanted a second opinion on medicating someone so small(he is almost 7 now and weighs under 40lbs, my 3yo is bigger than him).
