[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With the caveat that I'm not seeking medical advice, and not holding against anyone providing advice.. When a kid is normally good, academically bright, but has an outburst (uncontrolled yelling) - what is the best school option in Montgomery County? I understand the MCPS process takes at least 90 days. Called around a few schools and even the "special programs" seem hesitant without an IEP or diagnosis (which can take months as well).[/quote] OP, if this was just one outburst, it might be unusual and age inappropriate but may not indicate a larger problem. If this is a regular occurrence or you have other concerns, then yes, talking with your pediatrician might be one first step. If you have a kid younger than 6, then I would get on a waitlist for a developmental pediatrician. If 6 or older then I would get a neuropsychological evaluation.[/quote]
