BTW im not trying to change him to something hes not.
Ive never tried to change him, like is stimming or things
But HITTING an breaking things is NOT just INAPPROPRIATE but CRIMINAL at times and can get him thrown in jail
Am I right? |

What I hate is when his current (and soon to be EX) Psychiatrist tells me, "Oh thats just the AUTISM!"
And then I talk to other parents of similar kids and they say they went thru it with their kids...
Violence and outbursts are not appropriate behavior |

Eureka? NONE of that sounds like anything my son is or is going thru.
Hes extremely consistent, especially at school.
The "monkey week" episodes stopped at age 6
None of Abrahams story rings a bell |

He sleeps thru the night, every night.
His moods always predictable and consistent until he gets frustrated with something.
No one has ever mentioned bipolar in all of his 17 years.
I just dont think hes bipolar |
