[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 202322, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Hi & welcome. I hate the term "label" ~ these are medical diagnosis's! As I recall, the tweedles worst times were between ~ ah, heck they were a handful from the day they were placed with us at the age of 6, until just very recently for kt. wm is still a handful but in a group home. I'd like to suggest whatever you use, start small & work up. You cannot change everything in a month. (though most of us would like to :winking:) My children are very stubborn, so we used Love & Logic; the child is given choices that you can live with. Bath or shower, this shirt or a tshirt, toast or cereal for breakfast? From there we built up to clean room or vacuum living room. All of these choices I was there to help them complete until they came of an age where I knew they had it. wm is working at his group home on the same sets of choices & such that he had been learning here at home. (He just takes a bit longer & is one impulsive child). Good luck with whatever way you go.......at some point medications will have to be addressed whether psychiatrist wants to or not. It's a way of life with growing difficult children. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
