[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 323814, member: 3907"] Hello Valentine, I just wanted to add my welcome. Sorry that things are so rough with your older difficult child right now. I agree with Busywend that this might be your golden opportunity to get crucial services in place for your difficult child. I would also suggest that you revisit the diagnosis of ODD. ODD is more of a description of behaviour than a true diagnosis, and it is often caused by an underlying condition that's not being treated effectively. Until you know what the underlying condition is and put the right interventions in place, it's hard to regulate the behaviour. Have you read The Explosive Child by Ross Greene? Although your boys are a bit older, it's never too late to start putting the principles into practice. If you can de-escalate conflict in the house it's better for everyone concerned. Has your difficult child ever been seen by a NeuroPsychologist? I would recommend it as it can rule in or rule out some conditions that might have gone unrecognized from other evaluations.
