[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your child is 10. If her behavior is so bad that it’s getting her kicked out of school, she either:

1.) has some undiagnosed issue
2.) she has never been disciplined in her life.

Have you done a neuropsych?[/quote]

Yes. Twice. Like I said, both showed nothing other than mild anxiety.

She is [b]constantly [/b]disciplined for not abiding by our rules, so often that it's exhausting and I wish I had never had kids. [/quote]

If this is the case, then you sit her down and calmly and matter of factly tell her that she will be moving schools next year, and exactly the reasons why.  She needs to learn that her actions have consequences.

You might also consider putting her on a low does of Lexapro.  I wouldn’t be surprised if the “mild anxiety” is more than that.[/quote]

Wouldn't the neuropsych evals have picked up anything else?[/quote]

That’s because she doesn’t have anything else. There are discipline issues that the parents didn’t do correctly at a younger age and now child is a world class brat. [/quote]
