[QUOTE="slsh, post: 125455, member: 8"] Gosh - it sounds like you're doing a *lot* (if not everything) right. Consistency was always just beyond my reach. ;) What do you do when she melts down? Does she have an audience? What happens if you ignore? What does her therapist suggest in terms of handling the meltdowns? Does she have similar problems at school? I'd strongly recommend "The Explosive Child" - I'm definitely not a self-help book kind of person, with this single exception. It explains some of the thinking behind the oppositional/defiant child from the child's point of view as well as helping us parents to figure out what battles we *really* want to fight and which ones can wait. If you fight every battle, you're going to get worn out really fast. Welcome to the board - so glad you found us!! [/QUOTE]
