[QUOTE="Ash, post: 376232"] A Psychologist diagnosed him. He has been in therapy for over a year but the first therapist couldn't get anywhere with him. My son refused to even speak to the guy. He was nice to my son and everything but he just flat out refused to say one word to the man for over 7 months! That is how strong willed he is. The guy said he has NEVER seen a case like it. He said usually kids will break and give in as they get to know someone but not my son. We bribed him with all sorts of things and he never once would talk to the counselor. He would talk to me during counseling but never him so we decided to change it up get a female therapist and went with Play Therapy. We have since been told my son is ODD and that therapy is much more suited for us as parents so we now see her while my son is in school. He argues EVERYTHING. I mean EVERYTHING. His favorite words are " NO!" and " yes I am" when I tell him he cannot do something. Sometimes this kid is such a joy but many other times it just a headache and a half. Today at the store he threw a block at his sister so I wouldn't let him play blocks anymore and he had to stay with me and shop for clothes and he continued to backtalk and tell me nasty things like " im gonna do what I want" and " yes I am " It took all I had not to pop him on the lips for backtalking but I KNOW it would have just made things worse. We don't spank, we realized long ago it just makes him more angry and less able to control. [/QUOTE]
