[QUOTE="nvts, post: 343809, member: 3814"] Hi Jody! First, breathe - don't sit at your desk and panic - panic doesn't solve anything at all. In your post you asked: "Why was it so important not to do two little chores and instead hurt her mom. I just don't get it. " It's not about the chores and it's not that she's choosing between them or her mom. She probably doesn't even know what made her fly off the handle. Blind rage is exactly that: blind! The others are right, however. You need to at least contact the psychiatrist to let him/her know what is going on. Not for nothing, if she did get bruised while you were trying to defend yourself and someone at school saw it, you'd be reported anyway. Her psychiatrist needs to have it in his records that you were attacked. Plain and simple. Since it would be an attack of a child on an adult, they're not required to report. If you had attacked her, the psychiatrist is a required reporting agency. Better to have it documented. You also need to keep in mind that this type of documentation is important for future reference. If you decided to have a specialist come in and help, they'd need a full-idea as to what is going on. I personally believe that ODD and ADHD combined usually indicates that there's something else going on. Has she had a full neuropsychologist done? When you're talking to the director at the Children's Hospital, you may want to ask if he can direct you to who in his hospital can see your daughter quickly. Keep your chin up honey! We're here for you and would never get sick of being an ear or a shoulder! No matter what, you've found a group who has dealt with everything you're going through! Beth [/QUOTE]
