[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 395533, member: 1550"] I'm thinking that maybe you should look into Aspergers. Does she have any intense, obsessive interests? Can she have a give and take conversation and make strong eye contact with strangers? Why does she not have friends? Is she "quirky?" When she was younger did she have any strange habits such as flapping her arms or smacking her lips or rocking back and forth or any repetitious or annoying behavior that perhaps was diagnosed as oppositional...but may be something else completely. Can she tolerate loud noise, all sorts of material, different texture foods, transitions? Does transitioning make her melt down? Sensory issues are also a big part of Aspergers. Did she ever have early speech issues? Did she play with toys the right way or did she just sort of take them apart or did s he ignore toys? I'm not a big ODD/ADHD fan. ODD is a pretty useless diagnosis. ADHD exists, but it is often the first diagnosis. a child gets and very often NOT the last one. Sorry for all the questions. Trying to help. Welcome to the board.
