[quote=Anonymous]So sorry you are going through this. This type of behavior is very typical of teenage boys who tend to be made a lot of the time. I can understand that he doesn't want to be labeled as different. no one does at that age. I would recommend family counseling, so he doesn't feel like he is being singled out as a big problem, and to make sure you keep communicating well. I would pursue why he doesn't like school. There may be alternatives he would prefer. Try to keep perspective. He will grow out of this and his SAT score, won't matter five years fron now. Some very good colleges don't require them. Or if he needs a smaller less competitive setting there are plenty of supportive small colleges that have programs to support kids with special needs. he wil grow up and some of these problems will be out grown. I have been in your shoes and my kid is now married, and a great dad with a good job .[/quote]
