[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 454089"] Most of us here do not believe ODD is a stand-alone diagnosis. In most cases, it is just a label for a group of behaviors that they can't easily put into something else. It turns out that the behaviors are actually because of an underlying diagnosis. In our case, what everyone had considered to be willful and purposeful defiance turned out to be Autism Spectrum behavior. For my son, conventional forms of rewards and punishments didn't work because they didn't mean anything to HIM. Can you describe for us some of the behaviors you are dealing with? Who diagnosed him with ODD? Does he have any other diagnosis's? Is he taking any medications? Others will be along. I HIGHLY recommend you read "The Explosive Child" if you haven't already. Using that as best I can, it has made a world of difference in our house. [/QUOTE]
