[QUOTE="Allan-Matlem, post: 453181, member: 10"] Hi, I am sorry about the challenges your child is facing. Dr Ross Greene , the creator of the CPS - problem solving approach prefers not to spend too much time on dxs as most of them just describe the kid - looking bad. And that tells us little about why she is behaving in this way .Now kids don't look bad all the time , it is usually under certain conditions that the demands placed on her outstrip the skills she has. Those dxs that do also talk about lacking skills have the down side that people still get caught up with the descriptive aspects. i suggest you use the ALSUP - assessed lagging skills and unsolved problems list / TSI - the thinking skills inventory depending on the CPS websites [url]http://livesinthebalance.org[/url] or [url]http://thinkkids.org[/url] the next step is to take your list of unsolved problems, prioritize them , putting others on the shelf so as too reduce tension and calm the home and start using CPS to teach skills in an indirect fashion. Mentors, buddy -tutors etc - I would encourage a mentoring or buddy-tutor , older sister friendship - they are good are creating trust and promoting so many life skills. There is an approach called RDI for the autism spectrum , similar to cps that focuses on ' dynamic skills and intelligence Mindfulness - medidation - kids who acquire these relaxing, soothing and calming techniques are able to regulate their emotions more effectively Medication - some kids benefit from medication but the medication merry-go-around can be quite a challenging route to take . maybe as part of a holistic approach your psychiatrist can find something that will help sleep , eating , sensory issues - we need to check these issues as well I hope this helps Allan [/QUOTE]
