[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 222708, member: 2423"] Is there anything that happens at Dad's that would make him irritable? Or does he generally have a hard time with transitions? Does he have sensory issues (for example, sensitivity to clothing tags, sock seams, loud noises, bright lights, etc)? If so, that might explain why he was set off by all the hugging at church and the singing to the car radio. I don't believe his behavior was the result of being a brat or having ODD. I believe you are still in the discovery process of trying to figure out what is fueling this type of behavior. If his irritability and emotional reactivity is worse since starting ADHD medications, then you need to be in touch with the prescribing doctor to discuss your observations. I personally don't ever believe spanking is the solution. It just teaches that might is right, and that's not a lesson I want to instill in my children. Have you read The Explosive Child by Ross Greene? That might give you a new look at parenting extra-challenging children. Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
