[QUOTE="Lulu, post: 141228, member: 4493"] We are in a similar boat with our 4yo. I recognized so many of the things on the list you wrote! I second getting Greene's The Explosive Child. That helped me understand (somewhat) why my difficult child 1 was doing the things he was, and also gave me a better "big picture" of disciplining him. Conventional discipline/consequences rarely work with miine, and often just serve to escalate the issue until someone hurts himself (difficult child 1's usually end with him biting his arm HARD, then crying hysterically for ten minutes, and then telling us he thought it was OUR arm or hand). So, yes, you are in the right place, and these ladies have some good ideas about evaluations, family history, etc. Welcome, but wish you didn't have to find us! [/QUOTE]
