[quote=Anonymous]My son is almost 3.5, was six weeks early, and has had delays - right now, fine motor and maybe some speech but it seems like it's pretty much within normal range. I am losing my mind with his behavior. He has always thrown things, everything all the time - what can this be? Is it a tic? We saw a dev ped recently and she just noted the fine motor delay. Said no autistic tendencies and cognitive skills are in range taking account the fine motor delay. He's doing ot and we are going to start twice a week.

It's the impulse control that is just starting to drive me mad. If he walks into a room and there is a toy on the table, he has to throw it. Then he just stars throwing everything. Time outs do nothing. Ask, He has to pour out water. He has to hit the dog. He will not listen or obey anyone. His receptive language is apparently fine. He can't sit still for even a second and everyone has noted his short attention span. He won't dress himself and we are having major difficultly potty training. I can't leave him alone still in a room for even one second. He grabs rhings and smashes them and pours them out. I will bring this all up with the ot and with our dev ped at our next appointment but what does this sound like? Severe adhd? When can I get him evaluated for that? Isn't it way too early? I'm just not sure what even to do in the meantime. I'm losing my mind as noted and so is my nanny. [/quote]
