I'm feeling kind of stuck right now because DS in 1st grade needs help (attention/behavior problems) and I don't quite know what to do. His Doctor says the school needs to have him evaluated, or I can do a private evaluation, but the school seems to think the Dr should be doing something more.
I did push the school to set up an evaluation. We're in private school, so it's not as easy as public. They mentioned behavioral therapy, but that seems like a strange first step. It's all very upsetting to me and I don't know what to do about it.
Should I be looking for a new pediatrician? How can I find a good one? Most of my friends have younger kids, and I don't think any of them have dealt with behavioral issues.
