[QUOTE="SRL, post: 15632, member: 701"] I wholeheartedly agree with this: balance and adapting methods to the child and situation. My difficult child has responded extremely well to Green's methods and I know we wouldn't be where we are today if we had stuck with authoritarian parenting. But likewise, my difficult child responds well to limited and carefully selected behavioral mod and we've used that to get him over some big hurdles. In fact shortly after I found this place he hit his absolute low point due to anxiety and a bad rxn to two SSRI's, and it was the use of both methods in very extreme forms at the same time that got him turned around. It was exhausting and nothing I could have/would have sustained for a long period but it did the job and got him turned around without medication or hospitalization. [/QUOTE]
