[QUOTE="Pinkmum81, post: 557008, member: 13622"] I posted many many months ago about my son. I thought he might have ODD or be Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). He has since seen a Peadiatrician who was less than helpful, said the usual, he's young, he will probably grow out of things and just re-referred him to speech and language as he still cannot pronounce certain sounds. He is now in school full time but since he has started school, although he seems to behave fine there, his behaviour at home has gotten out of control. I literally do not know how to handle him anymore. His temper and aggression is off the chart! He is constantly angry, throwing things, screaming, shouting, lashing out, crying, he won't do anything he's told, he constantly is obsessed with food - when he's going to eat, what he's going to eat etc. In the past two days he's smashed a picture frame and broken the keyboard on the computer (Im using iPad to type this!). I have spent most of today in tears, his rages today have been some of his worst ever, he was shaking with anger and so ramped up I had to physically restrain him to stop him hurting himself or any of my other children. He ticks every box when I look up ODD, and I'm pretty convinced he has this. I have looked up how to deal with this but I can't see anything but positive enforcement! I try to ignore bad behaviour but its impossible if he's smashing things or hurting people. The fact that he can control it at school and around my family makes me feel like I'm going crazy as people don't see the little tornado he turns into at home. Please help! [/QUOTE]
