[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 563430, member: 11791"] And I'm the opposite. I do not believe in ODD - other than as a "placeholder" diagnosis for when nobody has figured out yet what is really going on. The reason? The more we find answers to difficult child's issues, challenges, and problems (including problem people in his life esp at school)... the less ODD we have to deal with. ODD is a symptom, not a cause. It is real, as in... the behaviour it identifies really does exist. But the behaviour is not [I]caused by ODD[/I]. Rather, the behavior "IS" ODD... the cause is something else. And yes, for some kids, it is extremely difficult to find ALL of the causes. Complex kids rarely have one magical diagnosis! [/QUOTE]
