[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 423967"] Do any of these things happen at home for him to react to? It could be school but it could also be that these types of things don't happen at home so you're not seeing them there. A lot of us here will tell you that we don't consider ODD to be a standalone diagnosis. Usually (many times) it is a group of symptoms that are actually displayed because of an underlying cause. Ex: My difficult child was diagnosis with ODD at age 8. We found out at age 12 that he actually has Asperger's syndrome. The behaviors (the WHY's of the behaviors) were very similar. I would recommend you get a thorough evaluation from a neuropsychologist to sort these things out. Welcome. We are glad to have you. It would be nice if you could do a signature like mine below so we can get an idea of family make-up, diagnoses, medications, etc for those in your household. It helps us remember your situation without having to scroll through endless posts. Again, Welcome to the family. [/QUOTE]
