[quote=Anonymous]I have a good friend that went through something similar with her DD in 3rd/4th grade. They were not a home without discipline. Antidepressants did wonders. Mom felt like, with the medical change, the rest of the strategies could actually worked. Her daughter is noticiablly happier as is the rest of the family. Sometimes you really need the medication to stop a bad cycle. Ultimate diagnosis was ADHD + learning differences. Tons of time to craft IEP; thearpist; psychiatrist. You're just going to have to buckle down and do the hard work this situation demands. If you committ to working through this now (and it may take 6 months) your child will benefit immensely in the future. I think you are right to consider a school change. As others have indicated the reputation will follow your son even after your intervention changes his behavior. He will likely benefit from a new environment but I'd wait until next fall when you hopefully have things under control. Hang in there. [/quote]
