[QUOTE="Joeman, post: 193743, member: 5231"] Hi VaNessa, My difficult child is now 4 and diagnosed with ADHD/ODD. Some of what you describe sounds similar to my difficult child and some of it seems to fit more in with autism spectrum. I'd skip the colors, numbers and alphabet for now and focus more on trying to provide him with a structured day, a variety of play experiences including high sensory type activities that he enjoys and mix in some calmer things like listening to music or reading to him. I usually have to hold our difficult child with deep pressure to get his attention, plus get down on his level, eye to eye. Our potty training was accomplished by providing M&Ms for the successes. Good luck and I hope you find the answers you need from your upcoming appointment. [/QUOTE]
