[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 141206, member: 59"] ODD is a stand alone diagnosis in the DSM. That doesn't mean your difficult child doesn't have another disorder with it, just wanted to correct that misunderstanding. My difficult child knows what she is doing is wrong but she can't control her impulse to do it anyway. She thrives on risky behaviors and loves to be defiant. If someone tells her to do something she will do the opposite. Her birthmother said she was the same way, for my difficult child it's definitely in the genes. ODD is a difficult disorder to deal with. Many people have ODD behaviors as part of another disorder. Some truly have ODD. I have found that the more I push the more she pushes back. But yet when I allow her to dowhat she wants she assumes I am in agreement. She does not have the internal monitor to stop her from being defiant. Nancy [/QUOTE]
