I so hear you. My son was like that. Everyone thought he was the perfect child

and then at home he would completely fall apart. It was horrible.... and I was

so tired of the professionals telling me that it was because we had such a safe

environment that he felt safe to fall apart at home... they didn't look beyond

that, though we tried professional after professional. Not until he was 13 did

we get a true diagnosis which enabled us to get the true help we needed.
