Going in circles

I have a boy who will be 8. He has a learning disability of some sort. People want to blame the parent for what he does, doesn't do--whatever. One person thinks he may be slightly autistic, another thinks bipolar, another likes asberger. I think he needs (as well as I) real direction and support. He has been thru a lot of BAD sitters which have added to the anxiety/stress for him and I. Any good ideas, people you might know of in the Adirondack of NY...let me know. Encouragement is greatly appreciated. Currently utizing local library computer so my response will be days or so apart. THANKS!!!
