Does you grand

daughter have of aggressive symptoms?

Oh yes Sondra.................She had many self injurious behaviors even as

young as 2 YO. She wasn't aggressive to others but would hurt herself. Biting

her fingers, pinching her legs, head banging, etc. It was terribly

disturbing to see her do this. A ped. neuro put her on Risperdal when she was 5

and

has been on it ever since. She has very few SIB's now, but occasionally she

gets so frustrated and takes it out on herself.

She cannot tell us where she hurts or how she feels. The only way we know if

she is hurting is if she gets grouchy. It is so hard because if you ask her

if something hurts she will say yes to whichever part of the body you ask her.

By the way, she will be 15 in Feb. I have keep telling her age because she

is a bit older than some of the kids on this list.
