[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 94422, member: 23"] Sounds like it may be related to a transitioning. It helped for us to give difficult child some lead time, e.g., cuing him that bedtime is in 15 min, bedtime in 10 minutes, bedtime in 5 minutes, then bedtime. He just couldn't switch gears quickly (still a problem sometimes). It didn't have to "bedtime," to cause a problem. Bath time, dinner time, time to leave, time to go home, time to turn the tv off, whatever..... It one reason why a consistent routine is important to many of our kids. They function better in a very structured environment. Mine did, anyway. Also, ADHD kids live in the moment. Your child probably has no real concept of time except to him "tomorrow" is a lifetime away. [/QUOTE]
