[QUOTE="Southern child, post: 307525, member: 8097"] I have a 5 year old boy who I adopted, I have had him since he was 9 months old. His biological mother had and still has a substance abuse problem. He was not born addicted to drugs but I know she did illegal drugs, alcohol and pills while pregnant. He has been given the diagnosis of ODD, mood disorder and ADHD, for about 7 months now. He currently takes abilify and straterra. He is reaaly good at home but at school he is terrible. He just started kindergarten and they are already at their wits end with him. He kicks, yells, tells the teacher to shut up, I hate you, this class and school. He rolls around on the floor, throws his shoes and refuses to do any work, hiding under the table. He plays well with the neiggboor boy who is 6. His school behavior and how to handle it is effecting my relationship with my live in boyfriend. He doesn't understand why he can behave at home but not at school. He also has started to lie. I am so fruststrated and there are no support groups in my area. Anyone have any suggestions?????? [/QUOTE]
