[QUOTE="tiredsahm, post: 297392, member: 7850"] My 9 yr.old daughter is likewise....she sees a pediatric psychologist (she has both ODD and ADHD) and pychiatrist. She takes Focalin for her ADHD, but the ODD is purely behavioral, and her therapist says I should not let her know that she is pushing my buttons. The key is to remain calm (which sometimes is just impossible; you can go crazy!) and be matter-of-factly. When you praise him, simply say good job, you must be proud of yourself. Make him feel good about himself. I take away privileges - tv, computer and playing DS sometimes for a whole week. The worst part for me? She is apathetic. Everything is I don't care! So I will have to let her fall on her face and make her learn the hard way. Needless to say, it is affecting her socially. It hurts of course to see your child hurt herself, but I think she is old enough to make choices.:sad-very: [/QUOTE]
