[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 141123, member: 59"] She sounds very much like my daughter and if she truly has ODD it will get worse before it gets better. Although she may not behaving badly in school yet, when she gets to high school she may get detentions frequently. Watch for drug and alcohol use in the adolescent years also. I don't know what makes soem kids like this. We've searched for years to find a reason and don't believe it when someone tells you if you find the real disorder you can fix it with the right medications. ODD is not cured. The best we can do is provide our difficult child with as much structure and discipline and love possible until her brain takes over and she decides her life has become unmanageable. I have found it very important to keep her in as many constructive activities as possible and also to monitor her friends very carefully. That will become extremely important in the future years when she will be attracted to risky people and behaviors. Nancy [/QUOTE]
