[QUOTE="mstddybr, post: 194791, member: 5832"] Hi Miche, I'm new here but I read your post and your daughter seems so much like my son. He flips out when he's angry but he gets angry quite easily and doesn't know how to handle frustration. Anything that doesn't go the way he planned it in his mind or any task that he's asked to complete at home will send him into a rage sometimes. However, he does well in school and gets decent grades. He has never been kicked out of the private schools he's been in but he was having a hard time in public school. He was constantly in trouble and came home angry everyday. I had just had my 1 year old when he started second grade so I had to deal with a brand new baby and his rage on a daily basis. My doctor even prescribed Xanax so that I could handle picking him up from school everyday. I pulled him out and sacrificed some things in order to pay for private school again. He had a complete turn-around and passed to the 3rd grade with mostly Bs and some As. He has never been diagnosed and we have been from therapist to therapist with no real results. I have been doing my own research and he fits into the ODD "mold." He also talks like a teenager and enjoys the teen kinds of t.v. shows. Anyway, I don't really have any suggestions or advice but just wanted to let you know that you are not alone. I too struggled with putting a label on my son but now I'm at the point where I wish I knew what is causing his behavioral issues. I am a teacher (6th grade) as well and I agree with you that your daughter's teacher has probably no clue on how to deal with "real" children. Take care and lots of hugs. difficult child - 8 year old boy - no rx 15 month old baby boy - dealing with daycare adjustment [/QUOTE]
