[QUOTE="tammyjh, post: 129429, member: 3072"] Is there any way the medication. could be irritating the ODD behaviors? If time outs don't work, how does he react to loss of privileges? If the time out plan is something that has recently been implemented, you might want to stick with it for a while longer yet as it can take some time for them to "get it". My difficult child hasn't ever really seemed to get it but we continue to do the same thing because we need a time out and it gives "us" a little breather. I have to have her do time out in her room or in a room where I can lock the door if she won't stay there. Then, when she's calmed down, we start over. She either gets a time out, a loss of privilge, or both...usually both because we start with a loss of privilege (electronics) and it inflames the situation and we have to have her be somewhere alone so she can calm down. Ross Greene's book is good because the goal is to help them learn to negotiate and become a little more flexible instead of just exploding. We're not able to work on this with our difficult child because she's SUPER concrete. We're working towards it though. [/QUOTE]
