[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 510795, member: 1550"] Hi, Nikki. Welcome to the board. Many of us don't find ODD a useful diagnosis. We KNOW our kids are defiant, but ODD rarely stands alone and usually has another, bigger diagnosis causing the behavior. Can you please give us some background on this child, from infancy on? Any early trauma? Both parents still living with her? Any early delays or quirks? The more you tell us the better we can help or try to help. What kind of doctor gave her the ODD diagnosis? Has she had a workup, like with a Neuropsychologist? I really like their testing and find them very good diagnosticians. I would not trust a pediatrician or a plain therapist or social worker or anyone at school to do the diagnosing. Our kids usually do not respond to logical discipline and do not do well with behavioral therapists. We need professionals who can think outside the box. You may want to do a signature, like I did below, in order to give us an overview of your family. [/QUOTE]
