[quote=Anonymous][i] ...it may be that he is good at holding it together and then just simply collapses when he gets home...[/i] All kids are different, but for what it's worth, wanted to share our experience: His teachers reported that our (non-SN) 1st grader was an ideal student: cooperative, focused, hard-working, friendly, etc. At home, he had frequent all-out tantrums: screaming, fighting, biting, destroying, threatening to kill us and kill himself, which would last for up to a half an hour. Sometime I'd have to literally restrain him until he calmed or fell asleep. This was clearly not normal for a 7-year old. Over the summer, he calmed down. We worried it would start up again this year, but it didn't. He talked to the psychologist in our ped's office a few times, but I think basically he just grew out of it. I don't say that to deter you from looking for help, just to note that in some cases children do grow out these kinds of problems. Good luck.[/quote]
