[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 453754, member: 11791"] First, welcome - you will find kind hearts and experienced voices here. Next... Yes, there is hope. No magic bullets, no instant turn-arounds. But there is definitely hope. And then... the others are going to want more details - you have provided some which helps. - Who did the diagnosis (diagnosis) of ODD? any other dxes? - Has his behaviour always been this way, or did it take a turn for the worse at some point? - medications? - what else have you tried? For the record... most of us around here don't put much stock in the ODD diagnosis... there's a few where it really is the primary problem, maybe - most of the time? Its a way of describing what is going on (behavior issues - like you didn't already know that!) without any clues as to [U]why[/U]. And most of the time... there's a whole long list of "whys". Have you seen the book, "the explosive child" (by green, I think). Its a good starting place - an approach that seems to have some impact on lots of out-of-control kids. [/QUOTE]
