Hi there! My husband and I went to my 7 year old son's p/t conference yesterday...it did not go well. I cried the whole way home (I rarely cry). We are at a loss, we have no idea what to do. His teacher says that her days revolve around his behavior. If he has a good behavior day, then she gets some teaching done. But there are days when she spends most of her day correcting my son. He displays multiple symptoms for ODD, but I cannot see what the underlined issue is.
I do wonder if any of his behavior has to do with- all that he has gone through in his little life...He was a sweet baby, really mild-mannered, just hung out. At 19 mos. he was diagnosed with- Neuroblastoma (a large malignant tumor that came from his left adrenal gland). He endured 18 months or so of treatment including chemo, radiation, stem-cell rescue (transplant of his own stem-cells), multiple surgeries, etc... I just wonder if there is a chemical imbalance or something????
He is my miracle baby and is such a sweet, compassionate, funny little kid, how can some one so wonderful be so irritating???? Anyway, I am desperatley searching for some ideas with- the constant arguing, debating, and total lack of submitting to any type of authority.
