[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 429533, member: 11791"] Hi - and welcome. Glad you found us, sorry you need to! I think you'll find out fairly quickly that, around here, ODD as a diagnosis (diagnosis) isn't a stand-alone thing - that is, ODD describes a behavior problem but doesn't tell you why - and therefore, doesn't give you anything to go on in figuring out what to change. But it does make a good red flag that there are problems going on... Agree - its not a parenting problem - or at the absolute most, parenting will be WAY down the list of causes. (been there done that - we had to change our parenting style - but only as part of a bigger picture of other things!) SO... Most around here are going to want to know who you've seen for specialists, over what period of time, and what their various 'answers' have been. And you'll get questions from others looking for clues that they can relate to... While we're at it - look at the resources page for some good info on starting a parent report - you're likely in this for the long haul, and it pays to start documenting as early as possible.
