[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think family therapy might be a good place to start. He's not like this because he's an only child or because his grandparents spoil him. There's a few things in your posts which are troubling and you seem to be missing them. Why did you buy him a computer to take to school? He's in elementary! You also don't seem to like what doctors tell you could be wrong and you are looking for some easy fix or magic wand. It doesn't exist. Whatever is wrong with him is going to take hard work on the part of the family and him to fix.[/quote] I bought him a computer because kids in his class were required to do research, communicate with one another via email about books they read, and type all papers. It was an inexpensive $300 computer with limited capability and IT WAS NEVER TO BE TAKEN TO SCHOOL. He did take it to school oncethough. He sneaked it into his backpack, which caused me to institute backpack checks each morning. He broke it at home btw, not at school also. I am weary from all the work we have done for him. When I thought he might have ASD, I did floortime and RDI. I did it 49 hrs per week. I kept a notebook on it at the time. It was back breaking and took every bit of strength in me, but I didn't want to lose valuable time in early intervention. I started when he was 2.5 and kept it up until age 4. We took himto Childrens Hospital, to various highly recommended psychiatrists and psychologists. I put him in the best schools. I researched every toy he owned to make sure they fostered thinking. I taught him to read at age 4. Trust me, we did a lot.[/quote]
