Chris Peters this makes sense. I've always said my son has come so far, but he still has a long way to go. starting treatments as early as possible, I believe, makes a huge difference too.
Amy Stewart Fortin I totally agree with you and this post! I never had treatment and had a hard time in school. My 12 year old gets straight A's and has a strong support system at home. I want so much more and better for him. :)

Chris Peters Tish- that is my big fear too. Joey is almost 15 and has alot of anger issues too. we can't drink till 21 in NJ, but still, I worry about how he will just manage day to day living when he has such a short fuse and is big and can be violent.
Melissa Cove Voto Awww.. I have a Joey too!! He's 10 going into the 5th grade, and just recently become very physical with me. He's on the small side, as well as I am,but he doesn't even know his own stregnth.

We have no real social group support for teens in our great state of RI...all they ever say is ..you can get on the list..my grandson suffers for this and I cry all the time..just don't know what to do...wish u and your family the best..my search goes on..markella carnevale of RI
