[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 442318"] Welcome DRKW. You have found the right place. My difficult child had some of the same issues with meltdowns on the way to timeouts. I inflicted natural consequences, clean up the mess and "work" for me to pay off any damage. It doesn't always work so I threw in grounding from ALL activities until cleaned up and arrangements for repayment made (set schedule and jobs). Grounding resumed if he made an agreement and didn't follow through. It was harder on me that it was on him at first but eventually he realized I was serious. As for the "defiance", are you sure it's outright defiance and not a lack of understanding. This is the case in our house most of the time. Again, Welcome to the "family". [/QUOTE]
