[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 251736, member: 3419"] Hi Frustrated, nice to meet you. Sounds like your son has way more than ADHD. I would have him re-evaluated. You're seeing all these specialists and all you have is an ADHD diagnosis? That's a symptom, in my book, not a whole diagnosis. Does your son blow up when things don't go his way because he sees that someone has broken his rules? Does he blow up if his clothes don't fit right? When he has to transition from watching TV to dinner? Those could be clues as to what's going on with him. What motivates him? Does he like video games? Those are a powerful motivator for my son. I am d*D of the Video Games, LOL! I can get him to do the dishes, brush the dogs, and vacuum the whole house, on the promise of 1 hr of PS2 football. Do not take away things from your son while he is standing there. You'll end up in a fistfight. I make things go away while my son is at school, and then talk to him about it when he gets home. He still gets mad but it's much more manageable. Is your son on any medications? [/QUOTE]
