[QUOTE="SRL, post: 103170, member: 701"] Welcome aboard. It sounds like you have your hands full. We've all been there, done that. Yes, I do think The Explosive Child will help you. The title leads you to think it would be most helpful for kids who are very explosive but broaden that to include inflexible, defiant, noncompliant and it's a clearer picture. Be sure to read the adaptations for younger children at the top of this board. Actually for a child this young a child psychologist wouldn't be my first choice. With the family history I'd start with a developmental pediatrician or a pediatric neuropsychologist. Child psychologists often tend to jump to treating behaviors fairly quickly and what you want is a thorough assessment and parent here have found the two specialty areas I've mentioned to generally be more thorough. Outside of difficult type behaviors, has he displayed any developmental differences? [/QUOTE]
