[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 149913, member: 1550"] Smallmom had some good questions. Also, substance abuse on either side of the family tree puts a child at a high risk for a mood disorder as substance abusers most likely have mood disorders and are self-medicating. These problems are inherited. I'd see a neuropsychologist to make sure all bases are covered. There are no other diagnosticians that do such intensive evaluations as NeuroPsychs. My son was tested for ten hours and we got a real picture of what he is like, why, and finally a diagnosis. ODD rarely stands alone. Her behavior isn't your fault, by the way. Some kids are just born differently and we have to find out what's wrong and help. But we didn't cause it. [/QUOTE]
