Hi everyone
Myself and my wife have a 7 year old daughter who we believe has Conduct Disorder and/or ADHD and/or ODD. Most days she will be defiant no matter what she is asked to told to do. She will deliberately sometimes do something that she has been told not to do. She doesn't respond to punishments all that much, especially in a school environment. She lies majority of the time. She is highly disruptive in class and can't sit still for more than a minute. She takes other childrens food if she see's something that she wants even though she has her own. School has now started internally excluding her because she can be some disruptive but on some days she can be very good.
However sometimes, in other environments, she can be a little angel.. very helpful, nice and calm.
The School have now put a referral through to the educational psychologists but in the mean time I could really do with any helpful advice or tips as to what we can do to try to deal with this kind of behavior until it all comes through. Any help would be very much appreciated!
