[QUOTE="aeroeng, post: 431276, member: 6557"] Don't be overly scared about the stories on this post. I read that about 2/3 of the ODD kids grow up to live normal lives, and 1/3 don't. It is the 1/3 that you read about in this site. The parents of the 2/3 no longer need the support, so you won't read about them. Now ODD is not really a diagnoses, just a generalization, and a 33% chance that your child could get involved with drugs and issues with the law is very scarey, but not a set thing. It is worth the fight. My youngest son also has troubles finding and keeping friends, he also does better outside of the school setting and usually with kids that are much younger then he is, with small one on one settings working the best. Find an outside of school interest that you might focus on. (karate, art class, sports game, Pokemon trading cards ect) and see if they provide an opportunity for friendship. [/QUOTE]
