do I have to be the mom?
Hi and welcome! I agree with- the reading! the more you read about the better prepared you are. I've done more research since finding this place and i feel I'm in a much better position to talk to her docs and help her through one day at a time. I also re-read Explosive child and believe me, this method works for all ages. My difficult child is doing extremely well on a 100% reward system. You do somthing, you get something immediately (yes, you really can't make a long term goal for her on this system) And it's not always a monetary prize - it can be playing with- a friend, time on the Wii etc.

There some great advice, ideas and support in this place. Hope you find what works for your difficult child.
