My Son is about to be 5yrs old this month and my husband and I are dealing with the last year possibly 2 years with our son's behavior. We heard for the last two years that our son was just all boy and his behavior progressively gets worse. Examples are as follows
Back talk to an extreme; you ask or tell him to do something he will either repeat it to get a response from you, scream cry if he doesn't get his way, or say things like he hates you, or he doesn't love you.
He is obsessed with curse words and negitivity.
If you put him in his room for time out he will stomp and scream all the way upstairs get to his room and slam his door..(I understand if he was a teenager but he is 5 and has been doing this for at least a year)
He says he doesn't have to listen to anyone
When he gets in trouble and he knows your upset with him he will go from crying and upset he is in trouble to laughing at you about it.
THE LIST GOES ON!!!!!
We have an appointment the end of this month to talk to the doctor to see what could be wrong with him. WE have done some research and believe that he could possibly have ODD (oppositional defient disorder). We have a daughter who is ADHD so we are pretty sure that our son is not ADHD based on our 7 year experience with our daughter.
If anyone has any information or advice it would greatly beneifitical for my husband and I.
