My son turned 4 this pass Jan. He has always been intellegent. I had him screened for preschool by the public school system. They used the preschool Brigance and he scored a 94 out of 100. My concern is how wild he gets when others are around. I have asked his doctor, and he said he shows signs of impulsiveness, but wasn't going to label him yet. He go wild with others around, runs in circles, sings very loundly, really anything to get everyone's attention. Everyone tries to tell me it has to do with the new baby sister that now 3 months old. I have been a public school teacher for 8 years and I know there is something more. After his screening some questions came up about SI. He doesn't like bath water any warmer than basically luke warm, and really he thinks that is too hot. He prefers cold, he loves cold. He took a shower outside tonight with the water hose, being 70 degrees. He has started sucking fingers or chewing on objects while watching TV, and suddendly some shoes he wore last year hurt the bottoms of his feet. I was leaning more toward the ADHD, before, but now I am not sure. He is very good at home when it is just us, but when anyone else is around he goes wild. Any suggestions.
