Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Hi Everyone, I want to start by saying that my son is doing much better... probably a 2 on the OCD scale of 10 (he has been a consistent 6 thru 8 for the past 4 years)! I don't want to jinx it though, and am bracing myself for the ebb and flow. His reassurance seeking has gone waaayyy down, but last week he came home from high school where he had just taken a test and confessed (because of his OCD) that he had looked at someone else's test a few times to be 'reassured' that he, himself, had the right answers. Because of his need to tell me the truth about things he has done wrong, I believe him. I believe that he only looked to compare his answers as he needed to be reassured. But, obviously, this is wrong in that he ethically shouldn't be doing this. If he gets caught, I really don't know what he will say to the teacher, and think he will just have to take the heat. It's a scenario that I hadn't envisioned, and I'm not sure how to handle it. He's a smart kid, but there could be more than OCD going on here. This may be yet another gray area.
