[QUOTE="OpenWindow, post: 190977, member: 45"] I like the idea of limiting the rules to September. I was thinking of trying a behavior chart with my difficult child and I'm going to copy that idea. You sound optimistic! I'm glad your husband is on the same page with you, it makes life so much easier for everyone. My difficult child took clonidine to help him sleep. It was also supposed to help with some of his ADHD symptoms. He was on a low dose, and while it helped keep him calm and kept his impulses under control, it kept him extremely tired. I think he was just too tired to be impulsive! He'd fall asleep by 6 or 7 every evening and was still really hard to wake up in the morning. It was a nice respite for me, but we decided to stop it because we didn't think he should just sleep his life away. We also had to keep a close eye on his blood pressure, because he has low blood pressure. The nurse at school checked it a few days a week. I hope it works for your son. Enjoy the boring time... what I would give for boring right now. Linda [/QUOTE]
