[QUOTE="Martie, post: 53904, member: 284"] ODD children do not do what they do "on purpose" in my opinion although it may look like it sometimes. I found great help in liking, as well as loving my ex-difficult child when he was (legitimately) diagnosis'd with ODD by reading Ross Greene's book, The Explosive Child. It is helpful in behavior management, but even more helpful to me was understanding how the out-of-control "spirals" began, and how to avoid them. I realized that when ex-difficult child lost it, his manipulation and obstinacies were really his last defense against feeling as though he was coming unglued, it was a lot easier for me to like him, if not his behavior. Best to you, Martie [/QUOTE]
