[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 605031, member: 1550"] Hi there. I can guarantee you this is not due to spoiling. That really is a misconception. Some kids are spoiled and they don't run around hitting others. That's a behavioral issue that is usually caused by some sort of inborn disorder so it is nobody's fault (unless child was/is abused or birthmother drank or did drugs while pregnant). I don't think any traditional behavioral methods will help your child. If she is differently wired, like almost all the kids whose parents end up here, these kids do not respond to "normal" behavioral methods and require clever (emphasis on clever) therapists and even psychiatrists who can think outside the box. First you need to get some sort of working diagnosis so you know what you are dealing with. "Spoiled" is not a diagnosis nor a reason for upsetting other kids and teachers. It's a lame excuse given by relatives, some clueless pediatricians, educators, "helpful" friends and others who don't "believe" in childhood disorders. Most of us have gone through it. She is very young, but an evaluation can't hurt her. Most likely she will get a working diagnosis that will change over time, but at least you can start the ball rolling. Welcome to the board, but sorry you had to join us! [/QUOTE]
