Hello my first post
Hi there my name is Karen i am in Canberra,
our 5 year old son is the one we are having huge trouble with, we are still in the process of working out what his problems are,
reading through the site i did read that children need to be 7 and older, our son has quite a few symptoms that have been mentioned in more then one of the different things listed, we do have a history of hip dislocation being with me and Aaron, even with my history his hips were not found till after he started walking, when he did start to walk he did have a limp which with my history bourght it to our attention, pluss he was a face up delivery , he is difficult at home but more noticable at school,he is always running out of the class room and basicly dose his own thing, the school is being very helpfull and trying different things but to no avail,we are booked in to see our gp with a report from the school councelor, he is also one with a very bad eating habit he will not try anything new , with the acception of a few times where he did eventually try something and found he liked it, and with what he eats i am lost to how much energy he has , he has had a few good times in school he did have one day where he didnt run out of class and a few other small things he has done on some days, and i dont want to have him medicated so when my mum just happend to come across an add in a magazine for this programe drug free caurght my eye straight away but the age he is at the moment is a down fall , we still intend to get intouch with the programe and talk to them , he is very obsesed with the wiggles but is it a syptom or that he just really likes displaying his like for them , i have realised we are not the only family having troubles but actually reading about it on the site has been a huge help, also we do have a lot of stress in the family ontop of the stress we are going through with Aaron which is not helping the situation so there are a lot of emotions flying around in our house hold, also with his behaviour at school peer presure is very noticable as some of the kids play on his behaviour and he is very easily influenced, he is also one who is not very good at occupying himself with play and is quite often seeking constant attention and plays up when he dosent get it, but i have noticed in the last few weeks he is getting a little better at times, but school is the main area at the moment, the other day at school his teacher bourght in a dolls house from home and Aaron drew all over it , its just so frustrating and starting to get us down alot , he knows what he has done wrong and what he needs to do or not do , its just him doing what he knows he should or shouldnt do , this was going to be only a short hello hehe quess just getting it off my chest a bit =) any how hope to work something out to help him and us sometime on this very hard journey ….
cheers Karen in Canberra..
