[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 303527, member: 3444"] I think sometimes you have to detach from that argumentativeness and try to let some of the things go by without taking the "bait". It's hard to do. You may need to learn some different approaches for dealing with the ODD behaviors. Have you read much from Dr. Ross Greene? Here's a link to his website on Collaborative Problem Solving: [URL]http://www.ccps.info/[/URL] Many of these techniques help solve the power struggle issues we can get into with our "special" kids. Like MWM said, I'd also be nervous about not having something in place to control the manic symptoms better. The way our psychiatrist described bipolar is that if left untreated, the symptoms act like kindling in the brain and can eventually result in a full-blown, and more severe presentation of the disorder from which it is much, much harder to recover. Welcome to the board! [/QUOTE]
