[QUOTE="klmno, post: 488807, member: 3699"] I don't know Buddy- many of us here have had 'services' that boiled down to beh mod and it didn't turn out too well- it ended up with the parents feeling like THEY were the ones trying something we've already tried and found didn't work but they kept insisting it would. Now, one thing I can say as far as services thru juvie here in this state- a lot of it falls apart because of the inexperienced, not-so-bright, under-qualified people they hire to provide services. I dare say that beh mod works on some if done appropriately but it hasn't proven to be 'the answer' for most of our difficult children. And honestlty, beh mod works on the premise that it's all learned behavior. If that's the case, no medication will change it. If the kid needs a medication, then the kid has an issue that beh mod alone cannot 'fix', so in my humble opinion, it's a bit contradictory if you buy into it 100%. In fairness though- I lean toward psychoeducation & CBT as a therapy for most things which ttakes an entirely different approach- and those tdocs don't normally use the term "you must buy into it in order for it to work" which is a real thorn in my side to hear that phrase.
