[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 647299, member: 14557"] To be honest: who searchs for 'difficult child' either? What does it even mean? Of course English is not my native language so it may evade my understanding, but for me, difficult child would refer mostly just some child (as in person who is a minor) being somehow difficult to deal with. Only time I have heard the phrase used, it has been in literature aimed for coaches etc. volunteers who work with kids and who only can know that some kid is difficult, not their diagnosis etc. like for example teacher would. I myself found this board by searching for conduct disorder. From the new people's posts here, we can often notice that they have found it by googling for example ODD or (adult) child stealing. I'm sure many other diagnosis, names of drugs, mentioning IEPs etc have brought people here. But I sincerly doubt that there are loads of people out there googling phrase "difficult child" (which by the way gives you mainly hits to some books sold in Amazon at least for me.) Wouldn't it be more effective to try to highlight more likely search terms that are not quite as generic as difficult child. Either behaviours or diagnosis that are typical to our g f gs? [/QUOTE]
