[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 336555, member: 2423"] Welcome! I'm glad you found us, but sorry you needed to. In general, ODD is not a helpful diagnosis. It is typically a description of a set of behaviors that is fueled by an underlying disorder (for example, anxiety, depression, autistic spectrum disorder, bipolar disorder, etc). Once the underlying disorder is identified and treated, the oppositional behaviors generally subside. So . . . I'm going to ask some questions in the hopes of pointing you in the right direction for help: What kind of behaviors is your daughter displaying that concern you? How does she do with same-age peers? Did she have any developmental or speech delays? Any sensory issues (for example, sensitivity to clothing tags, loud noises, food textures, etc)? Any mental health or substance abuse issues in the family tree? Until you get your daughter in for an evaluation, we recommend getting your hands on a copy of The Explosive Child by Ross Greene. It has helped many of us here parent our extra-challenging children. Again, welcome. [/QUOTE]
