[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 268976, member: 3419"] Hi Erin, nice to meet you. I would definitely keep an eye on him and not overdo it with-the medications, or you may miss an underlying problem. Great that the Adderall and fluoxetine are working. I thought that fluoxetine wasn't supposed to be used for bipolar, so you may be looking at something else. Most kids lie because they don't want to face being disciplined. That hardest thing to do is get them to tell the truth, and then not punish them, but it can be done. Just start a program of calmly having him tell you the truth, thanking him, and then offering no repercussions, except a calm, "You know that was wrong." What is it he is stealing? Video games? Candy? It's pretty easy to get to the root of that sort of stuff, unless it's random items that don't associate with-anything. [/QUOTE]
