[QUOTE="STRESSEDTOMAX, post: 529287, member: 3512"] Hi. I can relate to so much of what you said. From about 2 years old we had problems with our son and defiance/oppositional behavior. Time-outs NEVER worked. I remember when I put him in his room for a time-out once, he had knocked down his dresser, pulled some of the wallpaper border off the wall, and spread diaper cream all over. I have also tried punishments and spankings and like you said, it would just increase his anger. In order for him to do things, my husband would also often challenge him like I'll race you to the bathroom". Car behavior was the same as your son's. The one thing I will say is that my husband and I used to always say that "he's only like this with us" but unfortunately/fortunately that changed as he got older. He started having a lot more problems with peers and teachers. The only reason I say this was fortunate is because people began to realize what we were talking about and we started getting more answers. It is an exhausting road. I'm sorry you have to be here but I'm glad you found us. Chris [/QUOTE]
