[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Maybe I know your son, or at least one like him. The boy I know is avoided by nearly everyone because he pushes and kicks other children for no reason. He purposefully hit my 18 month old DD in the nose at pick up time, just as he was passing by. My son in the same class wants absolutely nothing to do with him, and we all wonder why his parents are not dealing better with the situation before someone gets permanently injured and lawsuits fly. So my advice to you, OP, is to tell your pediatrician, and ask what kind of evaluation is necessary. At the same time, you can get the school to act on your behalf by requesting a behavioral assessment. Please take this seriously, because I can assure you that your child's peers are suffering more than you are. You're not the one being hit. [/quote] So unbelievably self-centered.[/quote] Not really. My son exhibited many of the same behaviors as OPs and I did just what the PP suggested. I had my DS assessed and he was found to have ADHD, which explained a lot of his behavior, which was becoming isolating and he was beginning to get labeled a troublemaker. He could not control his impulsive behavior. Once we got the diagnosis, the pediatrician prescribed medication, which was transforming. He is now a happy, well adjusted child with lots of friends.[/quote]
