[quote=Anonymous]OP, I sympathize with what you are going through. I have a son who has been violent enough to be arrested multiple times - and he's a minor. There are other things as well. You seem so focused on getting an autism evaluation and you have all of your eggs in one basket. I don't know if he is autistic or not, but only one person in your treatment team thinks that and you've bought it hook, line and sinker. Regardless, I don't know why you wouldn't be getting into a psychiatrist to see if some of his issues can be handled through medication. Clearly therapy isn't working an an autism diagnosis isn't going to change your situation. You still have to figure out how to deal with the violence. Also, I'm not sure I'd be picking on the issue of screens these days. Our kids had their world turned upside down and they are not going back to school anytime soon. So, you have to do something and it doesn't take that long to get a psychiatric appointment. If nothing else, next time he's violent, let the police take him to the hospital.[/quote]
