Hi
Go to this link:

I belong to the SM Parents' Support Group mentioned in this site. You are
welcome to join us - we meet once a month. If you like more info on what
the group is doing, you can email me privately.
As for your child, you can take him to a private psychologist or
psychiatrist or to cut cost, you could get him to see a doctor at the
polyclinic to get a referral to a government psychiatrist at the Child
Guidance Clinic, Institute of Mental Health.
Rgds,
Wai Kiu
