[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, have you even applied or talk to them to see if they will accept your child?  You have posted (think it is you) multiple times about this.  I get your concern, but you need to talk to them and/or apply.  If it is severe, they may not take your child.  I know a few kids who were not accepted under behavioral issues (the parents were livid, especially one who minimized the behaviors).  They are looking for a good fit.  I spoke with them but it didn't seem a good fit for our child as there were no behavioral issues.  I know they don't take kids with extreme behaviors, but most schools will not.

You can try the Lourie Center in Rockville.  I'm not a fan of them but others like them.[/quote]

Yes, of course I have. Obviously, I have also talked to them. Come on, lady. The overall tone of your post is condescending and superior, so excuse my irritation, but I doubt many parents minimized their kids' behaviors, at least responsible parents, and I certainly have not. I also suspect that you are one of the parents with a child with severe language issues who claims that behavior issues are so much worse. My kid doesn't have speech issues but he has emotional regulation and impulsivity issues. There is no hierarchy of special needs, but you're right, kids that do not speak can be very easy to deal with if they are quiet and do not engage. Not sure that's "better." [/quote]

What reaction are you looking for?  You keep posting here.  What did they say?  Why don't you just go ahead and apply?  [b]Clearly your child needs far more help than you are getting them and you need to make some changes to make things better for your child.[/b][/quote]

Um, WTF. How on earth do you know this? We were accepted. I am trying to figure out if its a good fit. My child has had intensive therapy for the past two years, has a dev ped, a neurologist, a behaviorist, and is on medication. He does CBT. What are you even prattling on about? He has made enormous progress but he does still indeed have ADHD and along with that go some disruptive behaviors. I am trying to figure out if this is right for him. If you have nothing constructive to contribute to that other than making yourself feel superior about your own child's minimal needs, which pale in the face of my horribly troubled child's, I suggest you scoot along and find a productive hobby.
