[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 280523, member: 1514"] I must be missing something. You wrote that your son fit the criteria for ODD and he was allowed to make adult decisions when he was a child (when his mom was alive). Ummm...he is still a child. A young child. As far as I can tell from the things you have shared here, I cant see much that would give rise to an ODD diagnosis. He talks back? Ok. He asks annoying questions? He is a kid. They do that. He wont stay in his room for an entire day? I couldnt get my teen to do that. I think you are expecting too much out of an 8 year old. Maybe therapy would be good so you could get some parenting classes to learn how to parent more effectively. Kids arent little soldiers. [/QUOTE]
