[QUOTE="SRL, post: 96694, member: 701"] No, this isn't normal 5 year old behavior. Make sure you cover your bases through as thorough assessment as you can get in your area. I've been through the anxiety and what you're describing and it is indeed challenging. You pretty much need to toss out everything you ever thought you knew about parenting strategies. I also would encourage you to read The Explosive Child. There's a post at the top of this board on adapting it to young children. It has helped many of to gain an understanding and get a game plan for the difficult, defiant behaviors. It's important to bring other family members on board to be most effective. Hang in there--you've got a little guy who's just started school and issues are flaring. Things can get better from here. [/QUOTE]
