[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 436298, member: 1550"] Has he gone to a neuropsychologist? Sounds extreme for simply ADHD and ODD is a sort of "throwaway" diagnosis...every child on this board could probably meet the criteria for it. It means "defiant child." However, it doesn't explain why he is defiant. I'd get both kids re-evaluated by a neuropsychologist. There is a computer test for ADHD/ADD as well. I like it better than just Conners, which is simply the opinion of who does the scoring. To me, they hand out stimulants too much and too fast and they hurt as many kids as they help (or maybe even hurt more than they help). Good luck and keep us posted :) [/QUOTE]
