[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 424980, member: 1550"] Who diagnosed him with High-Functioning Autism (HFA)? There must have been a reason. Were you told why? Other than that, ODD does not usually stand alone. All of our kids meet the criteria for ODD. The problem is, there is almost always an underlying problem CAUSING the ODD. Even Dr. Chandler, who wrote the Chandler Papers (he is an expert in ODD) states that it rarely stands alone. So to diagnose it as a stand alone diagnosis is in my opinion pretty pointless. All it means is the child is defiant. Yes, but why??? My son could also handle high stimulus places once he was a little older. However, it could be that your son was misdiagnosed. Have you taken him to a neuropsychologist? Has he ever been on any medication? Did it help? [/QUOTE]
